Beyond humbled to have received an honorary doctorate from Rutgers University 21 years after I received my PhD there. It was awarded on Mother’s Day in (yet another) moment that reminded me of how much my late mother sacrificed to make this possible. Thank you to all my friends, my family and my mentors as well. Go Rutgers!

In the fight for racial justice, we must face the past to forge a better future, says Lavin’s Jelani Cobb, Dean at the Columbia Journalism School. Through his work, Jelani inspires us to pursue true equity and genuine democracy, while offering guidance and hope for the future. As he dissects the complexities of race and inequality, he argues that our only barrier is the mistaken belief that we’ve already reached our objectives.  #equality #democracy #equity #race #justice #lavin #keynotespeaker #speakersbureau
