For 50 years, Black lawyers in Minnesota have shaped history, fought for justice, and broken barriers in the legal profession. The Black Lawyer in Minnesota: 1973 to 2023 is a powerful and comprehensive retrospective that chronicles their impact, struggles, and triumphs. Join author Jeffrey A. Hassan, Esq. for a discussion of the book and the in-depth profiles of trailblazers like Alan Page, Minnesota’s first Black Supreme Court justice, Pamela Alexander, who made landmark rulings on racial disparities, and Keith Ellison, who led the prosecution of Derek Chauvin in the George Floyd trial. It explores the formation of key legal organizations, the fight for diversity in law, and the legal battles that redefined justice. With compelling narratives, historical insights, and never-before-told stories, this book is essential reading for legal professionals, history enthusiasts, and those passionate about racial justice.
