This year’s Trailblazer Award honoree, Russell Robinson, is a Professor at UC Berkeley Law. Russell Robinson’s legal scholarship has highlighted the abuses LGBTQ people face in incarceration and has helped shape the conversation around the arbitrary and discriminatory processes for incarcerated LGBT people to access “protective” spaces.  Robinson graduated with honors from Harvard Law School, after receiving his B.A. summa cum laude from Hampton University. Robinson clerked for Justice Stephen Breyer of the U.S. Supreme Court and Judge Dorothy Nelson of the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals.
