Jermaine Dupri, president of Island So So Def and Grammy Award-winning songwriter and producer ready to receive his Bill of Rights Award at the ACLU of Southern California’s 2008 Bill of Rights Dinner.
The annual event recognizes exceptional people who have worked to promote civil liberties and civil rights.
Through his involvement with the Hip-Hop Summit Action Network, Dupri also has worked for voter’s rights, the fight against mandatory minimum sentencing, and racial justice. By setting up Nu America, he has helped to build local youth councils across the country, and in the wake of Hurricane Katrina, he joined forces with House of Cartier to raise money and awareness for the Hurricane Relief Fund.
