Guilding Part One

In an episode recorded last semester (Spring of 2024), Ben sits down with fellow Podvocate Co-Editor in Chief, Casey Callahan, to talk about the history of the National Lawyers Guild both nationally and internationally over the course of the 20th and early 21st century. In doing so, they discuss what brought them both to the guild while students at Loyola as well as key historical events that led to the Guild’s founding in the late 1930s. They further explore key social movements that the Guild was a part of throughout the decades with the help of future guest, People’s Law Office attorney Brad Thompson.
