President Biden will deliver the commencement address at Morehouse College in Georgia on May 19, marking his second consecutive year speaking to a graduating class at a historically Black school. This appearance comes as polls suggest Biden needs to work towards maintaining high levels of support among Black voters, particularly younger ones, and follows concerns about possible protests during his visit. The President’s speech will focus on key policy achievements and priorities, such as increased federal funding for HBCUs, student loan debt forgiveness, and initiatives to address racial disparities in income and wealth. Morehouse, founded in 1867, is the alma mater of civil rights icon Martin Luther King Jr. and Senator Raphael Warnock, and its approximately 9,000 students make up part of a larger population of Black college students across the country who often rely on Pell Grants and student loans to fund their education.
