JCPA to Host Special Webinar with NAACP President Derrick Johnson

 June 16, 2:00 PM (EST)

The Jewish Council for Public Affairs (JCPA): We are living through a momentous time in the United States as diverse Americans have come together to call for an end to systematic racism. This is the most significant conversation our country has had on racism since the 1960s. What are the priority issues for the Black community? What is the role of the Jewish community? What does a new partnership between Blacks and Jews look like? These are some of the topics that will be discussed with NAACP President and CEO Derrick Johnson and our moderator Melanie Roth Gorelick.

Johnson formerly served as vice chairman of the NAACP National Board of Directors as well as state president for the Mississippi State Conference NAACP. Mr. Johnson is a veteran activist who has dedicated his career to defending the rights and improving the lives of Mississippians.
