February 24, 2021
Carlton Fields Tampa Office Managing Shareholder Lori Baggett was featured in a Tampa Bay Chamber article sharing the significance of Black History Month as told by influential Black leaders.
Baggett, also a Tampa Bay Chamber executive committee member, affirms that Black History Month is a time to celebrate the achievements of Black citizens and culture.
“Black history is American history. We should learn all of our history — even parts that go unrecognized or that we are not proud of — otherwise we are doomed to repeat it. For me, Black History Month has always represented a time of focused reflection and pride in all the contributions that Black people have made to society,” said Baggett.
