The 2nd Annual Ben Crump Human Rights Honors Returns to Atlanta
Enchanted Branding & Public Relations proudly announces the 2nd Annual Ben Crump Human Rights Honors, hosted by renowned civil rights attorney Benjamin Crump, taking place on Sunday, February 22, 2026, from 2:00 PM to 5:00 PM at Park Tavern, located at 500 Tenth Street NE, Atlanta, GA 30309.
This invitation-only civil rights brunch will convene an esteemed gathering of faith leaders, public servants, media executives, cultural influencers, and emerging changemakers to honor individuals whose work continues to advance justice, equity, and human dignity. Now in its second year, the Ben Crump Human Rights Honors has quickly become a distinguished platform recognizing leadership rooted in service, courage, and moral clarity.

The 2026 ceremony is powered by Keshia Walker and Insights Marketing, whose strategic leadership and commitment to purpose-driven storytelling have elevated the event into a premier civic and cultural moment.
Atlanta’s role as host city holds deep historical and symbolic significance. Reflecting on the importance of the location, Benjamin Crump shares:
“There is no city more fitting than Atlanta to serve as the backdrop for the Human Rights Honors. Atlanta has long stood as a catalyst for justice and transformation in America—shaped by the courage and conviction of giants like Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Congressman John Lewis, Ralph David Abernathy, Andrew Young, and Hosea Williams. Their work did not end with their generation—it lives through today’s leaders. This year’s honorees carry that same moral courage, that same willingness to stand in the gap, and that same commitment to justice that defined Atlanta’s role in the Civil Rights Movement. Honoring them here is both intentional and sacred—it is a reminder that the movement continues.”
The 2026 honorees include:
*Bishop Talbert Swan — Faith Based Activism Award
*Keisha Lance Bottoms — Public Service Award
*John Johnson — Rising Star Award
*Cameron Cleveland — Emerging Leader Award
*Rushion McDonald — Media Mogul Award
*Dr. Tiffany Crutcher — Equity & Justice Award
Hosted by Benjamin Crump, one of the nation’s most influential civil rights attorneys, the event reflects his enduring commitment to advocacy both inside and outside the courtroom. In addition to his landmark legal work, Crump is an Emmy Award nominee and acclaimed author. Expanding his literary legacy, Crump’s new legal thriller titled 'Worse Than a Lie,' further underscores his role as a powerful voice exploring truth, accountability, and the complexities of justice. Although just on shelves for a little over a month, the book is predicted to become a bestseller.
The 2nd Annual Ben Crump Human Rights Honors is an invitation-only affair. As the nation continues to navigate critical conversations around equity, accountability, and leadership, the Ben Crump Human Rights Honors stands as a profound reminder that progress is sustained by those willing to lead with purpose, integrity, and vision.
