Leadership Forum

Gain experience and become a leader today

The Leadership Forum is a 3-day event for 40-50 emerging leaders from historically Black colleges and universities (HBCUs) and predominantly white institutions (PWIs).

Forum participants engage in a meaningful dialogue to foster inter-group Black and Jewish relations, discuss mutual concerns (e.g. racism and antisemitism) that are directed towards their respective communities, and develop a plan of action to combat hate on their college campuses and in their local communities.

Black and Jewish Leaders of Tomorrow will offer Leadership Forums on an ongoing basis.

What are forums like?
