Known for his compelling oratory, Barber has been a leading voice in the Fight for $15 to raise the minimum wage, a proponent of economic justice for the poor and the homeless, and an advocate for the LGBTQ community.

Barber’s passionate call to finally bring Dr. King’s vision to fruition is a healing and hopeful response to the divisive messages in our national landscape,” said UAlbany President Havidán Rodríguez. “This celebration will be a wonderful opportunity for the UAlbany family to come together and reaffirm our commitment to diversity, inclusion and equity.”
