Law and Order: SVU star Ice T and Preacher Lawson from 'Americas Got Talent are both scheduled at The MVCC Cultural Series.

We've watched Ice T on “Law & Order: Special Victims Unit” for 20 years, but did you know he also speaks at prisons, high schools, and colleges? Ice T has become an influential spokesman for America’s youth, regardless of color. His lecture during The MVCC Cultural Series is titled “*Race in America: Bridging the Gap.”
