The impact of Minority-Serving Institutions! 🫶🏽

Thank you to Congressman Robin Kelly for hosting President Scott and President Patricia Ramsey of Medgar Evers College, CUNY for a powerful discussion on the impact Predominantly Black Institutions during the Congressional Black Caucus Annual Legislative Conference.

The event was opened by Congressman Danny K. Davis who championed the creation of the PBI designation and graduated from CSU. Congressman Davis spoke about the transformative impact attending a PBI had on his family.

This panel was moderated by Dr. Kesha Moore of the NAACP Legal Defense Fund and centered on the wellness and belonging of students attending PBIs. The conversation highlighted the importance of unique student support, strategic partnerships, and policies that strengthen opportunities for our students and regions.

Together, we are driving policy and progress to uplift students and strengthen PBIs across the nation.

Fannie Lou Hamer reminded us that courage does not always come without fear —it means standing firm in what is right, even when the cost is great. Her voice challenged injustice, her faith strengthened a movement and her determination opened doors for generations to come. She understood that freedom, dignity, and equality were worth fighting for.

Hamer's legacy lives on.

🖤

Today, we honor the life and legacy of Fannie Lou Hamer. Hamer's life was defined by courage, sacrifice, and a willingness to stand up for others. From voting rights and civic engagement to education, economic opportunity, and human dignity, she understood the true progress requires us to speak up and take action.

Her legacy continues to challenge us to serve our communities, create opportunities for the next generation, and never remain silent when justice and equality are at stake.

Happy Birthday, Mrs. Hamer. Your voice still matters. Your work still matters. Your legacy still matters. 🖤
