Judge Glenda Hatchett had her audience alternately in the palm of her hands and reeling on their heels during her inspiration and challenging speech at the 10th Lowery Lecture Series on Monday at Douglass High School. Obviously we posted information and highlights from the day’s events in the blog post below, but we thought we’d provide separate links to segments of the speeches by Judge Hatchett and the man himself, the Rev. Joseph E. Lowery. You can click on these videos to get the first part of the speeches, then check out the rest of the links on our district-approved YouTube channel, apsupdate. Enjoy!

Lowery at the lecture series that bears his name, the audience at Douglass High School received the challenge of a lifetime from guest speaker Judge Glenda Hatchett: “Bring your A game” to life.
