NASHVILLE, TN — Nashville Organized for Action and Hope (NOAH), is celebrating 10 years of building community and power for ordinary people to establish the “Beloved Community” that is equitable, just, fair, and democratic for all. It is an ambitious goal, but one that is within our grasp.

The theme is “A Decade of Justice: Building a Legacy and Charting a Way Forward.”

The keynote speaker for NOAH’s 10th Anniversary Banquet will be Dr. Michael Eric Dyson. Author of seven New York Times best-selling books, Dr. Dyson is a global academic, ordained Baptist minister, media personality, and winner of numerous prestigious awards and accolades including the 2020 Langston Hughes Medal, an American and Southern Book Award, and two NAACP Image Awards. Dyson is currently a Centennial and Distinguished University Professor in both the College of Arts and Science and The Divinity School at Vanderbilt University.
