Angela Rye, Dr. Michael Eric Dyson, and several other luminaries have entered the chat.
On May 30, 2025, Rye, Dyson, CNN Anchor and Chief Legal Analyst Laura Coates, REFORM Alliance CEO Jessica Jackson, Baltimore Mayor Brandon Scott, and several other community leaders and trailblazers will join Roc Nation & United Justice Coalition at The Shed in New York for the third annual UJC Summit. Rye, Dyson, Scott, and company join the first round of acclaimed speakers announced last month, including The Breakfast Club’s Chalamagne Tha God, MSNBC’s Ari Melber, and Innocence Project Co-Founder Barry Scheck. The summit will also feature relatives of Atatiana Jefferson, Botham Jean, and John Albers, who will speak candidly about the tragic loss of their loved ones and the continued fight for justice.
“The UJC Summit returns for its third gathering—bringing together changemakers for a day of powerful conversation and action,” Team ROC and the United Justice Coalition wrote. “On Friday, May 30, 2025, join us at The Shed – Hudson Yards (NYC) for the 2025 United Justice Coalition (UJC) Summit—a transformative day of collaboration, action, and impact.”
In addition to a star-studded speaker lineup, the 2025 UJC Summit will also include an exhibition space with more than three dozen nonprofit and advocacy organizations from across the country, including the Center for Policing Equity, Gathering for Justice, Ladies of Hope Ministries, and Until Freedom among others. The entire event is made possible in part due to the contributions and support of the REFORM Alliance, NFL Inspire Change, SEIU, BLOCK, Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity Inc., Lyft, Hard Rock Times Square, NOBODY, Tidal, and NYC Tourism.
