The Dred Scott Heritage Foundation Host Boeing Attorneys

June 29, 2007

Boeing attorneys ventured out for a day of history and a visit to Dred places on the morning of June 29, 2007. The morning treated them to a lecture at the Old Court House by Dr. David Konig, Professor of History and Professor of Law at Washington University. Dr. Konig coordinated and hosted the Dred Scott Symposium at the University March 1-3, 2007 for the 150th anniversary of the Dred Scott Decision. They toured the new exhibit and had lunch at the Bryan Cave Law Firm. There they were hosted by attorney John “Jack” Walbran. During lunch, Lynne Jackson, General Services manager at Bryan Cave, spoke with them and shared some legal but mostly person insights about the case and her famous ancestors. It was an atypical day for 20 attorneys, one they seemed to enjoy and appreciate.
