Morris Dees (third from right), co-founder of the Southern Poverty Law Center, spoke earlier this month at Wayne State University Law School’s Spencer M. Partrich Auditorium in Detroit. Dees’ presentation, “With Justice for All in a Changing America,” was the third installment of the annual Dean A. Robb Public Interest Lecture Series that is presented by Wayne Law’s Damon J. Keith Center for Civil Rights. On hand to welcome Dees to Wayne Law were (left to right) Dean Robb, Wayne Law Dean Jocelyn Benson, Michael Pitt, Wayne Law Prof. and Keith Center Director Peter Hammer, and Keith Center Associate Director Savala Trepczynski. The lecture series is made possible by the Royal Oak law firm of Pitt, McGehee, Palmer, & Rivers PC and supported by the Public Justice Foundation. The series honors Robb, a 1949 Wayne Law alumnus, noted civil rights attorney and social activist.
