Alabama State University honored one of the nation’s most important civil rights icons.
On Tuesday, the curtain was lifted on Jo Ann Robinson Hall. Hundreds gathered during a special dedication celebration on the campus of Alabama State University.
“I’m deeply moved by the significance of their vote, and the impact of this day. Professor Robinson was one of the unsung heroes, or sheroes, of the civil rights movement. But today we are here to sing her praise, and to let the world know that Jo Ann Robinson’s name deserves to be honored along with others, other icons with which we are all familiar, many of whom, like Professor Robinson, held significant ties to this great university,” said ASU President Quinton T. Ross Jr.
World-renowned civil rights attorney Fred Gray served as the dedication speaker and took the opportunity to honor his close friend and fellow activist.
