ATLANTA, Ga. – Renowned civil rights attorney Ben Crump issued the following statement after the lawsuit against the Fearless Fund was dropped:
“It has been an honor to represent the Fearless Fund in this historic case. By strategically avoiding a Supreme Court ruling that could have eliminated race-based funding, we protected vital opportunities for the entire Black and brown community. This victory ensures that programs dedicated to uplifting underrepresented entrepreneurs remain intact and continue to serve their critical purpose.
“The Fearless Fund has also announced a new $200 million debt loan program aimed at supporting under-resourced entrepreneurs. This initiative reflects their ongoing commitment to advancing equity and creating opportunities for those who have been historically marginalized. I am proud to have stood with the Fearless Fund in this fight for economic justice and will continue to support efforts that promote fairness and inclusion.”
