Join us for the annual Butler A. Jones Lecture. Our speaker this year is Jessica Byrd, Social Activist and Political Organizer. Byrd was one of Time Magazine’s “12 New Faces of Black Leadership” in 2016 and is the founder and principal strategist of Three Point Strategies, a Washington, D.C.-based political consulting firm supporting candidates and organizations of color.
