Bill Cosby is scheduled to be in Alabama this weekend to speak to high school students as part of an education demonstration held by the Black Belt Community Foundation.

According to AL.com, beyond speaking with students from the Demopolis and Selma districts, the 77-year-old comedian is also expected to walk across the historic Edmund Pettus Bridge, site of some of the most memorable marches in Civil Rights' history.

"I strongly support the Black Belt Community Foundation's 'Black Belt Children Matter' Initiative because everyone should be able to have access to the best schools possible," said Cosby. "We have a moral and societal obligation to give our young people the opportunity to succeed with their education."

It's not known if Cosby might face any resistance given all his recent bad publicity. Over the last several months, dozens of women have emerged to accuse the famed comedian and "Cosby Show" star of drugging and sexually assaulting them.

In one instance, former "Cosby Show" actress Lili Bernard claims she was assaulted more than two decades ago and "she has the evidence to prove it."

Bernard recently met with New Jersey police. The Press of Atlantic City reported she alleges that after gaining her trust as a mentor, Cosby betrayed it by attacking her. On the show, Bernard played eccentric and pregnant school teacher Mrs. Minifield during the early 1990s.

She said, according to the New York Daily News, "Bill Cosby mentored me. He told me, 'You're one of my kids, Bernard.' He praised me. ... He lifted me up and I believed him. After all, he was Bill Cosby."

Beyond the exposure he can bring to their cause, Black Belt Community Foundation President Felecia Lucky told the AL.com Cosby's dedication to humanity, education and philanthropy counts as an invaluable resource.
