Looking back to March 2026 ✨

We were honored to join the Barristers’ Association of Philadelphia for a powerful conversation on the CROWN Act—and the ongoing fight to end hair-based discrimination.

Hearing from Wendy Greene, Joanna McClinton, and Sierra Dunn was a reminder that this work is both deeply personal and legally necessary.

Grateful for the collaboration between President Samantha Fitzpatrick and WLD President Lanique Roberts in bringing this conversation to life.
