Capps Center for the Study of Ethics, Religion, and Public Life will present “Asian Americans, Religious Freedom, and the State,” a panel discussion featuring nationally-recognized experts, on May 9, 2024, at 4:00pm in UCSB’s Betty Elings Wells Pavilion (Faculty Club). This event is free and open to the public.
