AI Summary

This resolution recognizes April 4, 2025, as Texas HBCU (Historically Black Colleges and Universities) Day, honoring the fourth annual Texas HBCU Conference Series taking place at Huston-Tillotson University in Austin. The conference, which originated from a campus leadership and civic engagement initiative in 2022, brings together students, faculty, staff, and community partners from Texas' HBCUs to explore democracy, citizenship, and civic power through interdisciplinary perspectives. Inspired by the Freedom Schools of the civil rights era, the conference aims to examine the collective ability of civil society to strengthen democracy and highlight the critical role HBCUs have played in developing meaningful citizenship. The resolution formally recognizes the conference's importance, extends best wishes to participants for a productive event, and directs that an official copy of the resolution be prepared to commemorate the occasion.
