  • The 2025 SMU BLSA Annual Black History Month Luncheon was a memorable and impactful program! With our theme “Honoring Our Legacy, Forging Our Future," we took the time to reflect on the incredible strides made by the Black community, while looking forward to continuing that journey. We were honored to have Judge Tonya Parker as our keynote speaker. She delivered a powerful, timely speech that not only highlighted significant moments in Black history but also shared her personal journey from law student to judge. Her words were a reminder of the challenges faced and the progress we've made, and they inspired us all to keep pushing forward. To make the event even more engaging, we hosted a fun Black History Trivia Activity, where we paid homage to some of the trailblazing Black legal pioneers whose legacies have paved the way for many of us in the legal field today. It was a fantastic time of learning, celebration, and community. Looking forward to continuing to honor our past while forging ahead into a brighter future. Our luncheon was featured in SMU’s newspaper, the Daily Campus: https://lnkd.in/gkRvT5A9

    This weekend, I was honored to be inaugurated as the 116th President of the Dallas Bar Association. However, the true success was the over $1.2M raised for the Equal Access to Justice campaign providing legal aid to the low income citizens of N. Texas through the Dallas Volunteer Attorney Program. Thank you to our EAJ Campaign Chairs Lauren E. Black and Tim Newman, along with Honorary Chairs Anna M. Alvarado and Matt Henry, for your dedication and hard work. P.S. there's still time to give to push us over the top.

  • Last week, we had the privilege of hosting an insightful Networking & Professionalism Panel with incredible attorneys who shared their experiences navigating the legal field as underrepresented professionals. They offered valuable advice on building strong networks, advocating for yourself, and overcoming barriers in the industry. A huge thank you to our panelists Briana August, Kandace Walter, and Preston Tyson for their time and wisdom, and to all our members who attended and engaged in these important conversations!
