Former Congressman Louis B. Stokes Speaks at Policy Salon


On Wednesday evening this week the Spring 2010 class of Glenn Fellows enjoyed a presentation by Louis B. Stokes that traced his rise from the Cleveland projects and wartime service in a segregated military to thirty years of public service in the U.S. House of Representative and the position of senior counsel that he now holds at Squire, Sanders, and Dempsey, arguably Cleveland's most prestigious law firm. Is this a great country, or what?

The evening was arranged by our partners, WISH (Washington Intern Student Housing) and the Congressional Black Caucus Foundation. Some of the Glenn Fellows and CBC fellows in attendance are pictured above with Rep. Stokes.
