Charlamagne Tha God and Ari Melber are set to take part in the third edition of the United Justice Coalition Summit this spring in New York City.

The 2025 UJC Summit is set for May 30 at The Shed and will also feature Innocence Project co-founder Barry Scheck on its panel discussions lineup, with additional talent slated to be unveiled in the coming weeks. Admission to the event is free, though registration (also free) is strongly encouraged.

The United Justice Coalition is a charitable organization focused on raising awareness for “key justice issues,” with Charlamagne among those on the group’s advisory board. Other familiar names on the board include Gayle King, Jay-Z, and Alex Spiro.

Previous iterations of the conference have counted Fanatics CEO Michael Rubin, Spurs coach Gregg Popovich, and Fat Joe among its guest speakers. The 2025 conference will also boast multiple networking opportunities and the chance for nonprofit groups to introduce their message to the general public in a designated exhibition area.
