Details on State of Black Cleveland
This sounds interesting - even if it is on a Sat. morning at 8:30AM!!
Does anyone know more about this event - is there more info somewhere on-line?
When I looked for more details, all I found was at the CAAO website at http://www.caao.net/eventDetails.asp?id=27&Date=2/4/2006 which adds:
Event Details: Find out what's happening with an informative panel discussion and bring in some of your own solutions for the breakout group sessions.
If you would like to be a panelist or have an exhibit table for your organization please contact Eric Johnson at 216.374.3498 or email upbeatcleveland [at] hotmail [dot] com by February 1, 2006.
Re: Details on State of Black Cleveland
Hello Norm,
I just spoke to Eric this morning. His vision for the program is for it to be a form to bring current issues to the African American community, discuss these issues, and then develop next step initiatives. I did not attend the program last year, so I don't know a lot about how the agenda for the day is set up.
I will be attending this event. One of the breakout sessions I will be participating in is Entrepreneurship in the African American community.
I believe Eric is still looking for panelists. If you know of someone, please feel free to contact him.
