March 30, 2017 7:30 – 8:45 a.m. / Sheraton Seattle Hotel KEYNOTE SPEAKER 2017 4/5 MORRIS DEES INTERNATIONALLY-RENOWNED CIVIL RIGHTS ATTORNEY Southern Poverty Law Center co-founder and chief trial attorney Morris Dees was born in 1936 at Shorter, Alabama, the son of cotton farmers. As a young boy he worked those fields, witnessing social and economic deprivation first-hand, and Jim Crow treatment at its worst. Dees first launched a private law practice in 1960, and would win a series of groundbreaking civil rights cases that helped integrate government and public institutions.
Dees would go on to found the SPLC in Montgomery, Alabama in 1971, along with his law partner, Joseph J. Levin, Jr. and the late civil rights leader, Julian Bond. Gaining prominence for innovative lawsuits that would cripple the Ku Klux Klan, Aryan Nations and other notorious white supremacist hate groups, Dees would also later serve as the finance director for former Democratic presidential nominee George McGovern in 1972, and for President Jimmy Carter’s campaign in 1976.
The author of four books and the subject of a 1991 made-for-TV movie, Dees has been the recipient of more than 20 honorary degrees and numerous awards—including Trial Lawyer of the Year from Trial Lawyers for Public Justice; the Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial Award from the National Education Association; The Salem Award for Human Rights and Social Justice; and the ABA Medal, the American Bar Association’s highest award for exceptionally distinguished service.
