SPC Conversations: Attorney Shannen Coffin on Defending Religious Freedom in the US and Abroad

We invite you to tune in for the fourth episode of SPC Conversations, in which SPC board member Greg Gross interviews attorney Shannen Coffin, chair of the Appeals and Advocacy practice at the Washington, DC law firm Steptoe & Johnson. His practice spans a wide range of legal subject matters, including First Amendment free speech. He served as counsel to Vice President Cheney and as deputy assistant attorney general in the Justice Department’s Civil Division.

In this conversation, Shannen Coffin provides insightful details on fascinating recent cases on the central issue of religious freedom, litigated and won in the US. Framing these cases within their societal contexts, this discussion sheds light on how defending religious freedom within the US as well as abroad, especially in areas where Christians are persecuted, represents two sides of the same coin.

The more religious freedom is protected at home, the more we can contribute to protecting it around the world, and especially in the regions where defense of Christians is most urgently needed.

Please stay tuned for more SPC Conversations. Thank you for supporting our mission.
