Bro. Parris Evans, while leading this fraternal luncheon, will present to you the Belford V. Lawson Oratorical Contest. Belford V. Lawson was an American attorney and civil rights activist who made at least eight appearances before the United States Supreme Court. He was the first African American man to win a case before the Supreme Court. He was also the sixteenth General President of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc. The Belford V. Lawson Oratorical Contest allows our college brothers to demonstrate their oratorical skills in a competitive but educational format.
