Carter, Founder & CEO, Multicultural Women’s Council, and Host, InsideDiversity – The Power of Intelligence “Live” Internet Talk Radio Show on the VoiceAmerica™ Network. Attorney Fred Gray, Sr. is a nationally renowned civil rights attorney who has been at the forefront of changing the social fabric of America regarding civil rights, segregation, discrimination, and generally in improving the national judicial system.

“The fundamental tenet of the American ethos is premised on history, and as organizations continue to create a climate free of discrimination and bias, a lesson on civil rights is imperative,” said Carmen Carter. “So a journey back in time is not only appropriate, but necessary to bridge the divide, and further transform the nation to one of inclusion”, said Carter.

About Attorney Fred Gray

Fred D. Gray, Sr. grew up in Montgomery, Alabama but had to leave the state to complete his education because blacks could not attend law schools in Alabama. He returned in 1954 and became only one of two black lawyers in the city. He was as he wrote, determined to destroyed everything segregated that he found. He did not have to wait long when his friend the late Rosa Parks was arrested in 1955 for violating a segregated seating ordinance on a Montgomery bus. At the age of 26, the late Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. was chosen to lead the Montgomery Bus Boycott, and 24 year-old Fred Gray, Sr. became his, and the “movement’s” lawyer. Over the four decades since, Gray has won scores of civil rights cases in education, voting rights, transportation, health, and other areas. He represented the Freedom Riders, Selma to Montgomery Marches, Victims of the Tuskegee Study, and many more (Gray 2002).
