TURKISH AMERICAN LEGAL DEFENSE FUND ESTABLISHED
Washington, D.C. March 27, 2008 - The Turkish American Legal Defense Fund was established with the goal to educate and advise Turkish Americans regarding their constitutionally guaranteed right to free expression. Turkish Americans frequently perceive a limitation of their freedom of expression when encountering one-sided depictions of controversial issues related to their ancestral history or current issues related to Turkey or Turkish Americans. The goal of TALDF is to arm Turkish Americans with knowledge on their legal rights as they relate to freedom of expression, equal rights and opportunity under the law, and anti-defamation.
