Jelani Cobb will be presented with the 2016 Justice Trailblazer Award on February 25 at a special dinner at John Jay College, following the announcement of the winners of the 11th Annual John Jay/Harry Frank Guggenheim prizes for Excellence in Criminal Justice Reporting.
Dr. Cobb, Director of the Africana Studies Institute at the University of Connecticut, contributor to The New Yorker and prize-winning author, will be honored for his body of work which spans books, journalism and scholarship that explores the inequitable impact of the justice system on African Americans.
