Larry Lessig's Heroic Courage and Convictions
Posted by Ernest Miller
Ubercyberlawprof Larry Lessig has long been a hero among copyfighters. Today, I learned that he has taken a courageous and heroic stand in another realm, that of child sex abuse. An article in New York Metro recounts Prof. Lessig's fight against child sex abuse at the American Boychoir School in Princeton on behalf of the victims, including himself (The Choirboy):
As head boy at a legendary choir school, Lawrence Lessig was repeatedly molested by the charismatic choir director, part of a horrific pattern of child abuse there. Now, as one of Americas most famous lawyers, hes put his own past on trial to make sure such a thing never happens again.
I applaud Prof. Lessig's courage and convictions.
