Thanks to the LeBron James Family Foundation, Entertainment Industry Foundation and XQ Institute, the former president will give another address in a YouTube event titled “Dear Class of 2020,” along with Michelle Obama, the K-pop group BTS, Lady Gaga, former Secretary of Defense Robert M. Gates and others on June 6th, 2020 12pm PST. Alicia Keys, Chloe x Halle and Kelly Rowland will also make appearances.
“I’ve always loved joining commencements — the culmination of years of hard work and sacrifice,” Mr. Obama said on Twitter. “Even if we can’t get together in person this year, Michelle and I are excited to celebrate the nationwide Class of 2020 and recognize this milestone with you and your loved ones.”
Commencement speakers include BTS, Lady Gaga, former Secretary of Defense Robert M. Gates, Alphabet and Google CEO Sundar Pichai, former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, and Malala Yousafzai. BTS and others will perform at a virtual grad night after-party.
