Honoring the Young, Gifted, & Black Entrepreneurial Awards for its commitment to recognizing excellence, service, and cultural leadership, and bestowing the Lifetime Achievement Award to Cassandra Harris Lockwood
This is a ceremonial Senate resolution (J 1468), not a policy bill. It formally honors Cassandra Harris Lockwood, a community leader and artist, for receiving the Young, Gifted, & Black Entrepreneurial Awards' Lifetime Achievement Award in Community Service and Outreach. The resolution recognizes her decades of work in the arts, activism, community organizing, and founding initiatives like Utica's first Black newspaper and the nonprofit For The Good, Inc. It has no policy impact - it simply expresses the legislature's commendation through a symbolic resolution.
