Moderated by Nathalie Tejada- Director of Development, Public and Government Relations, Astor Services for Children & Families, and ICA Alum-Cycle II.

"NYC’s cultural policies should empower arts and cultural organizations working in communities of color,not only because a diverse arts sector is an essential element for any global city, but also because many culturally-specific organizations are already working,directly or indirectly, to address inequality in the distribution of public services,enforcement of civil rights, and access to professional and educational opportunities"
