Former UC Berkeley Law student body co-president and Commencement Service Prize winner Kendrick Peterson ’24 was featured by The Appellate Project (TAP) about his path to becoming this year’s first Black judicial clerk sworn into the Washington, D.C. Bar Association in his jurisdiction. The profile describes his unique academic and professional journey, from a feeling of “sneaking through the cracks” to one of increased belonging, confidence, and success. Peterson’s TAP mentor Armani Madison, who drove five hours to attend the swearing-in ceremony, called it “a rewarding experience for us both.”
