On April 24, the Black Law Students Association at Detroit Mercy Law hosted a Minorities and Women in the Law panel discussion. The panelists included Oakland County Circuit Judge Denise Langford-Morris, U.S. District Judge Gershwin Drain, Judge Mark Randon of the U.S. Bankrupty Court for the Eastern District of Michigan, and Judge Ruth Garrett of the 36th District Court in Detroit. Panel members “discussed their experiences in the legal profession and how their racial, ethnic and/or gender identities have impacted their careers,” according to Keshava Kirkland, secretary of the BLSA.
