"Our country has recently witnessed a deeply disturbing increase in anti-Semitism and instances of prejudice and bigotry directed toward people of Asian or African descent and other diverse groups. This is wholly unacceptable anywhere. It is all the more unconscionable in a free and educated nation that anyone should fear for their safety or be forced to endure the vile rantings and sickening symbols of bigotry." Hate has no place at University of Pennsylvania. #upenn #philadelphia #stopasianshate #stopantisemitism

"Black teenagers like her had historically been treated as 'child prostitutes' rather than victims of rape by adults." Alexis Martin was being sex trafficked at 15 when she was involved in a robbery that turned into a murder. The criminal justice system mishandled her case.

Lyft & Uber ban drivers from giving rides to unaccompanied minors, but it's the rideshare industry’s worst kept secret that passengers ride young & ride often. In the latest Pennsylvania Association for Justice News Quarterly, I wrote about "The Road To Redemption" for ride-share companies.

"Very fitting that on the last day of March (which just so happens to be Women’s Month), my boss successfully argued two motions on behalf of our clienta young woman who was sexually assaulted at a local hotel. Not only did he prevent an incredibly problematic invasion of her privacy from taking place, but is paving the way for future rulings that will hopefully protect the privacy and the basic dignity of rape and sexual assault survivors. Very proud to be working with you, Nadeem!" #repost from Amanda Jonas Lorentson. #nadeembezar #klinespecter #philadelphia #law

In 2020, the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children assisted law enforcement & families with more than 29,800 cases of missing children. Ninety one percent of those, roughly 26,500, were endangered runaways & 1 in 6 were likely victims of child sex trafficking. Last week, 16 missing children were recovered by US Marshals in the #Philadelphia area & at least four of the recovered children were connected to child sex trafficking. As an attorney with experience in law...suits involving human trafficking Kline & Specter, PC, it’s imperative that these missing children, who are considered to be some of the most at-risk & challenging recovery cases in the area, get the justice they deserve. via CNN: https://www.cnn.com//philadelphia-missing-child/index.html #nadeembezar #klinespecter #childtrafficking #humantrafficking #pennsylvania #philadelphia #law
