Liberal advocacy group the Alliance for Justice has named Rakim Brooks, a senior campaign strategist at the American Civil Liberties Union, as its next president, the group said on Wednesday.
Brooks will take over the role from founder Nan Aron, who has been at the helm since the judicial advocacy organization’s launch in 1979. He will start Sept. 9, according to an AFJ representative.
