"As a featured speaker at our major annual event, Dr. Adams addressed
more than six hundred elected officials and activists, including four
governors. Her presentation on the life of Fannie Lou Hamer set the tone
for the event, our first year to recognize the contributions of Mrs.
Hamer by adding her name to the title of the Jefferson-Jackson-Hamer
Dinner. Dr. Adams both reminded Mrs. Hamer's contemporaries of her impact
and introduced this legendary figure to those who never met her with
a concise, informative and moving tribute. Kimberly truly made the evening
a salute to Fannie Lou Hamer."
- Rickey Cole, Chairman of the Mississippi Democratic Party (2001-2004);
Currently: President of Mississippi Policy Forum

had the pleasure of hearing speak on the importance of women's political
participation in the campaign to elect women to the U.S. Presidency."
- Mosemarie Boyd, Spokesperson for American Women Presidents
"Dr. Kimberly Adams energized and captivated our global student
body at the the Women's Campaign School at Yale University. Her speaking
style communicated her analysis and information in an authoritative,
yet accessible way. She is a brilliant researcher, a compelling speaker,
and reaches out to her audience. We will invite her back to WCS again."
- Martha Sterling-Golden, President, Women's Campaign School at Yale
"I had the privilege of attending Dr. Adams' lectures on several
occasions: conferences in Salzburg, Chicago, and the lecture she delivered
to my students at the University in Rijeka. Dr Adams' approach to her
subject-matter showed a young woman whose speech could not leave anybody
indifferent. She spoke with assurance, candor, and passion not often
associated with academic settings. Her speeches are powerful, inspiring
and had an obvious positive impact on her audience."
- Dr. Branka Kalogjera, associate professor, Department of English,
University of Rijeka, Croatia
