Description2022 City of Tempe Diversity Award Winner Jordan Wright aspires to be a productive member of society and hopes to be seen for his abilities. When Jordan was victimized in 2018, something sparked inside of him. When Red for Ed happened, he marched alongside his teachers; when George Floyd was killed, he marched and knelt in solidarity with his brothers and sisters. Jordan has spoken with newspapers about his actions and advocacy and has written Gov. Doug Ducey and his school board advocating for what will better him and marginalized populations. Jordan faces challenges with courage to move mountains. He knows what is right and he speaks the truth. His on-going commitment to widespread justice comes from within and spreads to others.Status
