For the first time in Aiming High Awards history, our 2024 luncheon featured a special guest - Talese Brown, a graduate of LM's 2021-2022 Rights Now! Program. Talese expressed to the audience that thanks to the Rights Now! program, she was able to assist her peers who experienced gender discrimination and sexual harassment in accessing resources, including helping them contact their Title IX coordinator at school. Additionally, she serenaded the guests with "Make Them Hear You," by Brian Stokes Mitchell from Ragtime, as a poignant reminder that we must make our voices heard when vital legal protections are not being held to their promise.
