Dr Cathy Hughes Day

 

This weekend is sure to be etched in the heart and mind of our founder for years to come. On Friday, September 26th, The Black Women’s Agenda will honor Ms. Hughes with the Business & Economic Award that icons like Condoleezza Rice, Maya Angelou and Dorothy Height have received. The following evening, the Congressional Black Caucus Foundation will bestow its coveted Phoenix Award on Ms. Hughes. This award is given to an individual whose work and accomplishments stand as a role model for African-Americans and the African Diaspora. Our Founder and Chairperson’s name will be listed amongst past esteemed winners such as President Bill Clinton. To make the night particularly special, the keynote speaker for the evening’s festivities is President Barak Obama.

Due to the tremendous double honor granted to Ms. Hughes, the Radio One Family of Companies has deemed Monday, September 29th, Cathy Hughes Day. Each entity will salute Ms. Hughes and commemorate her outstanding achievement via digital, radio and television acknowledgement. Visit any of our 80 websites and tune into our programs on Monday to join in our salute.
