Roc Nation's social justice initiative, United Justice Coalition, will be hosting its inaugural social justice convention, The UJC Summit: Inaugural Social Justice Convention later this month. Previously, it was announced that the convention would include prominent social justice activists and personalities including Charlamagne The God.

Another wave of speakers has been announced, including Dr. Alfiee M. Breland-Noble founder of the innovative BIPOC mental health nonprofit, The AAKOMA Project, Shaka Senghor, TripActions Head of Sales and Success Culture, Craig Haney, principal researcher in the Stanford Prison Experiment, and Memphis rapper/activist Yo Gotti.

Gotti has been a prominent advocate for prison reform for years and previously teamed with Jay-Z and Team Roc to shed light on prison reform. In April, the Justice Department found unsafe conditions at a Mississippi prison following the advocacy efforts of Jay and Gotti, who, along with Team Roc, obtained legal representation for more than 225 incarcerated men at the Mississippi State Penitentiary and "filed multiple lawsuits against the Mississippi Department of Corrections (MDOC) to address the lack of COVID-19 testing and barbaric living conditions inside the facility."

Focused on more than big names to draw attention to reform, the inaugural summit aims to "bring together leaders, experts, and advocates who are committed to working together in the spirit of social and racial justice" by addressing families impacted by police violence, laws and policies, and increasing voter registration via town halls, panel discussions, and networking opportunities.

The UJC Summit: Inaugural Social Justice Convention will take place at CENTER415 in NYC on July 23. Register for the event at unitedjusticecoalition.com.
