Boseman to give Howard speech

The “Black Panther” is returning to his alma mater in Washington, D.C.

Howard University announced this week that Chadwick Boseman will give the keynote address at its 150th commencement ceremony on May 12. He’ll receive an honorary Doctor of Humane Letters, the university’s highest honor.

Wayne Frederick, Howard president, said Boseman’s role “reminds us of the excellence found in the African diaspora.”
