Raymond M. Brown’s life work fighting global human-rights violations started in a low-income housing project in Jersey City, N.J.
Brown will speak about human rights, values and the implication on global business at Fair360, formerly DiversityInc’s April 2425 event. His values and priorities were set early on by his father, Raymond A. Brown, a noted criminal attorney and civil-rights activist who defended Rubin “Hurricane” Carter and Joanne Chesimard.
“My dad was easily the greatest human being I’ve ever known because of his tremendous compassion for people, especially the underdogs. This influenced every aspect of my life,” says Brown, who is a partner in Greenbaum Rowe Smith & Davis’ legal department and chair of the White Collar Defense & Corporate and International Human Rights Compliance Group.Read more about Brown’s viewpoint on human rights and his father’s influence inTaking Risks for Your Brothers: The Power of Dr. King’s Words.
