Description
Maryland State Senator Jamie Raskin, an attorney and professor of constitutional law who has earned national recognition as a civil rights and civil liberties advocate, was honored by the American Humanist Association on Friday, June 6, 2008, with its Distinguished Service Award at the World Humanist Congress in Washington, DC. The following is adapted from his acceptance speech. THIS IS A HIGH HONOR--perhaps higher than you know. On our way out to the award ceremony my wife, Sarah, and I overheard our youngest daughter, Tabitha, telling her friend that she couldn't have a sleepover "because my dad is getting an award for being Human of the Year." That's not bad--when your kids think you've won something bigger than a Nobel Peace Prize.
