Kareem Abdul-Jabbar Visits Students at Warrensville Heights Library

Cleveland State University's second annual Arts and Humanities Alive, or AHA! Festival, wrapped up over the weekend. Most of it took place in Playhouse Square.

One of the festival's most anticipated speakers was basketball legend Kareem Abdul-Jabbar .

The NBA's all-time leading scorer and a six-time MVP, Abdul-Jabbar is now making his mark as the author of 14 books and as an outspoken advocate for social justice. 

While in town, Abdul-Jabbar also visited the Warrensville Heights Library; specifically to meet with young readers.
