Lightfoot Senior Counsel Liz Huntley is scheduled to appear of NPR’s Radio Show, Another View on Thursday, February 16th. 

Another View is a weekly call-in radio show which hosts prominent African American figures to discuss everyday topics from their diverse perspective.

No stranger to the topic, Huntley has dedicated her career to education advocacy. Namely, through her personal foundation, The Hope Institute, of which Huntley has been president since its founding in 2016. The Hope Institute works to provide opportunities to students across Alabama schools through mentorship, professional growth programs for educators and strategic character development. Liz has been regularly recognized for her community outreach, most recently by The Women’s Fund of Greater Birmingham, Stillman College and Samford University’s Orlean Beeson School of Education. At Lightfoot, Liz maintains a complex civil litigation practice while also serving as the firm’s Director of Community Relations and Engagement.
