Black and Brown Leadership: Promoting Just and Equitable Practices in an Era of Social Unrest

Session Type: Symposium

Abstract

The nation is currently facing an unprecedented challenge in ensuring that all citizens live in a fair, inclusive, and opportunity-rich society. Marginalized communities cannot thrive if they continue to be oppressed and isolated from economic opportunity. These issues have heightened questions about racial justice that can no longer be ignored. Many organizations enable the status quo by not confronting issues around race, gender and equity. Leaders of color want a seat at the table as highly valued contributors to a just and equitable society. Organizations benefit by listening to the voices of Black and Brown leaders. This symposium will critique how we have come to understand Black and Brown leadership when striving for social justice reform.
