RACIAL AND ETHNIC FAIRNESS
WINSTON CALVERT ST. LOUIS,MO Winston Calvert is a public relations consultant and lawyer based in St. Louis, MO. As a public relations consultant, he’s helped clients with strategic communications and relationships with the press. While growing his public relations practice, he’s also taken a role with the state’s legal arm that focuses on bringing equality among different races and ethnicities. “I was honored to be appointed to the Missouri Supreme Court’s Commission on Racial and Ethnic Fairness by the Chief Justice in 2015,” he says.
WINSTON CALVERT ST. LOUIS,MO The Commission on Racial and Ethnic Fairness was established in 2015 by the Supreme Court of Missouri, with Chief Justice Patricia Breckenridge making the announcement before lawyers and judges gathered for the annual joint meeting of the Judicial Conference of Missouri and The Missouri Bar. During the announcement, Breckenridge was hopeful that the commission would work in the best interests of the public; making sure that every individual was treated with respect and had their cases adjudicated fairly.
WINSTON CALVERT ST. LOUIS,MO The commission was tasked with six areas of study: the civil justice system, the criminal judicial system, the judiciary, the municipal justice system, the practice of law, and the juvenile justice system. The primary goal was to find solutions that would improve service delivery in the state. To accomplish this, the commission’s members were empowered to engage with the public in reviewing the legal practices and to make recommendations that ensure fairness and impartiality for all racial and ethnic minorities.
WINSTON CALVERT ST. LOUIS,MO Various stakeholder groups were approached in coming up with the commission, including public officials such as Winston Calvert (then St. Louis City Counselor), law enforcement officials, judges, and academic officials.
