University at Buffalo School of Law Professor Samantha Barbas will provide a lecture that discusses the roots of the U.S. Supreme Court's New York Times v. Sullivan decision, which created the "actual malice" standard that a public official must prove in a successful suit for defamation. Professor Barbas' lecture will focus on describing the origins of the New York Times v. Sullivan decision in the context of the 1960s Civil Rights Movement.
