The 35th president of the historic Wilkie D. Ferguson Jr. Bar Association, TerryAnn S. Howell, said that amidst a state and national political climate engulfed in culture wars, her team will have a steady hand.
“People are losing hope in our community with all the laws being passed in teaching our history and in our criminal justice system, and one of our priorities this year is geared to people recognizing the power they have when they vote and when they embrace their jury duty,” Howell said. “We’ll also have educational panels or clinics for people who can’t afford $300 an hour for legal advice.”
