Black Men’s Forum Honors Jada Pinkett Smith
Members of the Black Men’s Forum honored actress Jada Pinkett Smith as well as their Harvard peers at the group’s 18th annual Celebration of Black Women on Saturday.
The event honored black female students and celebrated the accomplishments of black women in the wider world.
Pinkett Smith—an actress, producer, director, author, singer-songwriter, and businesswoman—was recognized for her trailblazing professional success. She is known for her roles in films such as “Jason’s Lyric,” “The Matrix Reloaded,” and “The Nutty Professor.”
“She embodies all that Woman of the Year Award stands for,” wrote Black Men’s Forum President Damilare Sonoiki ’13, an inactive Crimson news editor, in the program for the event.
