Former President Joe Biden will speak Thursday at the National Bar Association’s 100th annual gala at the Hyatt in Chicago, two months after son Hunter agreed to a voluntary disbarment stemming from drug use and alleged gun law violations.
Joe Biden’s speech will be the highlight of the evening, while the event’s overall keynote is slated to be NFL Chicago Bears CEO Kevin Warren.
Among the featured speakers are a host of high-profile Black lawyers, including far-left Rep. Jasmine Crockett, D-Texas, Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison, Nevada Attorney General Aaron Ford, Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, MSNBC pundit Joy-Ann Reid and New York Attorney General Tish James.
"President Biden’s life and leadership reflect an unwavering commitment to the rule of law and the promise of justice for all," National Bar Association president Wiley Adams said in a statement.
