Mr. Morris is currently on tour with the Frederick Douglass Dialogues.  The tour will reach more than 50,000 people over a 50-day period.  During the tour he and his mom were featured on CNN Newsroom with Kyra Phillips to talk about the work of their organization, the Frederick Douglass Family Foundation.  In January 2009, leading up to the presidential inauguration, he and his mom were featured in Newsweek Magazine and a Newsweek Video project commemorating the Inauguration of President-Elect Obama.

 

Mr. Morris feels fortunate to be able to devote his time and energy to the Frederick Douglass Family Foundation and its mission to end modern-day slavery. In addition to his duties with FDFF, he serves on the boards of Kaleidoscope Arts Factory, Africa Global Partnership, Inc. and the advisory committee to establish a Human Rights Center at Howard University.
