Sanford, Florida native Danny Musaab Kiswani currently attends Florida A&M University College of Law, where he works towards obtaining a JD and beginning a law career focused on the political arena. Danny Kiswani, a committed and hardworking student, is an active member of the Florida A&M Mock Trial Team and the librarian for the Marshall-Bell Law Society, a student organization named for two legal professionals who excelled in their field, Thurgood Marshall and Derek Bell.
Thurgood Marshall and Derek Bell both broke down racial barriers in the U.S. judicial system. Derek Bell holds the distinction of being the first African-American professor to be awarded tenure at Harvard Law School. Thurgood Marshall was the first African-American to be appointed to the U.S. Supreme Court.
Both men sought to use judicial means to promote social and economic equality and ensure all people, including African-Americans, were treated equally under the law. The Marshall-Bell Law Society aims to continue their mission by promoting cultural awareness and sensitivity within the legal system.
