“Neil is kind, curious, and engaging—and, frankly, a great human being,” says President Alex Hernandez. “He will pay tribute to Dr. King and will reflect on his work to elevate people and promote racial equity. Being together in community in conversation is a gift I’m excited to experience with all of you.”
