CLEVELAND — Cuyahoga Community College is set to kick off its new Stand for Racial Justice alliance this afternoon by hosting a panel discussion with Tim Wise, a leading racial justice educator in America.
Moderated by 3News' own Leon Bibb, the panel will consist of local business leaders who will discuss how their organizations promote equality through hiring practices, in services and in support of the local community.
Among the panelists are 3News President and General Manager Micki Byrnes, MetroHealth System President and CEO Dr. Akram Boutros, Fifth Third Bank Regional President Joe DiRoccco, and Key Wealth Management Private Banking Executive David Reynolds.
"Wise has spent the past 25 years speaking to diverse audiences across the country and has trained numerous professional groups on methods for dismantling racism in their institutions," a flyer for the event reads.
