The Lady Dawgs close out their eight match homestand tonight when they take on @fhu_volleyball. Tonight is White Out/Faculty & Staff Appreciation Night. Throw on your white Fisk gear and celebrate the workers that help to make @fiskuniversity the great institution it is. @fiskvolleyball is seeking to extend their school record to 19 wins in a row. It won’t be easy. Earlier this season, we had to go to five sets against Freed. @lailaamarii_ has been playing well since coming off of injury. Last year’s home match was electric. We look for the same tonight. You don’t want to miss this one.

Kelly Miller Smith Week | October 21–27, 2026 | Fisk University | Nashville, TN

For two years, we've gathered at Fisk University to celebrate the life and legacy of Rev. Dr. Kelly Miller Smith Sr. through our KMS Day Convocation and Social Crisis Triptych—a student-centered, three-part exploration of pressing questions through Voice, Violence, and Vocation.

This year, we're expanding the celebration into an entire WEEK!

Kelly Miller Smith Week highlights the Justice Propulsion Lab's growing work, our partnerships, and the students, scholars, and community members who propel justice from research to policy to practice.

We're excited to welcome Dr. Eddie S. Glaude Jr. for our third annual Convocation and pre-convocation breakfast. This year's theme, "Violence, Education, and the Child," asks how we prepare, protect, and empower the generations who will carry the work of justice. Community dinners, critical conversations, student competitions, scholarship, and celebration offer glimpses of the community we hope to cultivate.

A community where difficult questions are welcomed. Where disagreement need not mean division. Where young people are not simply inheritors of our challenges but active participants in imagining and building something better. Where our histories inform our responsibilities to one another, and justice is not simply something we discuss, but something we practice.

We honor Rev. Dr. Smith not only by remembering his life and work, but by continuing the conversations, relationships, and commitments that give his legacy meaning.

At the Justice Propulsion Lab, our guiding conviction remains:

Ex sermone et justitia, pax.

Through discourse and justice, peace.

Join us. Bring a friend, engage a stranger, ask a difficult question, and be part of the work. And if you can't make it, send three people in your place.

Come with your questions. Leave ready to #PropelJustice.

📍 Event details are on the flyers. RSVP links are in our bio. Space is limited at some events—RSVP early!
