"I’m proud to be a Langston Bar Association scholarship recipient. The Langston Scholarship came at a time when I truly needed a reminder that my effort and dedication were seen in LA and beyond! Since then, Langston events and initiatives have remained a constant reminder of this irreplaceable community that continues to guide, connect, and inspire me."

"The Langston scholarship changed my law school experience because it lessened my financial burden, allowing me to focus on my grades. Much of my education has been marked by having to work and attend school, making it more difficult to get outstanding grades. Langston made it possible for me to focus only on school for the first time in my educational experience and that has paid off dividends."

"Being the first law student to receive this scholarship each year of my law school career reaffirmed my belief that representation matters. It gave me the confidence and support to pursue a career where I can advocate for equity and inclusion in the legal field. I’m deeply grateful for the Langston Bar community for investing in my journey and inspiring me to uplift others along the way."

"The Langston Scholarship was a pivotal part of my bar exam preparation journey. While studying full-time for the bar, I was not earning any income, yet my living expenses continued. The Langston Scholarship eased that financial burden by covering some of my essential expenses, allowing me to focus entirely on my studies. A few weeks ago, I learned that I passed the California Bar Examination on my first attempt. I am deeply grateful for the Langston Scholarship and to the Scholarship Committee for the critical financial support that made this achievement possible."
