Hosted by the Gwen Ifill College of Media, Arts, and Humanities at Simmons University, the annual signature Ifill Forum event carries on Gwen Ifill's legacy as a ground-breaking Black woman journalist by bringing together national voices for a public conversation on a key question of the day.

The Forum features a virtual panel discussion with Ava DuVernay, filmmaker and founder of ARRAY; and Sherrilyn Ifill, president and director-counsel of the NAACP Legal Defense and Educational Fund, Inc.

Washington Post Columnist Michele Norris will moderate.

Yamiche Alcindor, White House correspondent for the PBS NewsHour, and the 2019 Gwen Ifill Next Generation Award recipient, will present the 2020 Award to Ava DuVernay.
