DESCRIPTION: Student Leadership Forum was a Huge Success!\n\nPictured right: North Hempstead Students. Thank you to The Manhasset Community Fund for making this day possible!\n\nOn November 16, 2013 ERASE Racism hosted 132 high school students (from 18 schools across Nassau and Suffolk County) and their chaperones, assisted by 13 volunteers and 4 ERASE Racism staff. The students participated in the day-long program which was described as "eye-opening", "awesome" and "life-changing" by students. From our keynote speaker to the group discussions and activities, students learned about the history of racism, how prevalent it still is today and what they can do to bring about change.\n\n"The information from this leadership forum changed my life." -student participant\n\n"My students could not stop talking on the bus on the way home about their feelings and reactions to what they learned on Saturday" -student chaperone\nAbout the Program:  ERASE Racism's Student Leadership Program is a workshop that teach high-school students about the history of race and racism in the U.S., how it continues to have an impact on one's opportunities, and the changes that can be made to bring about more racial equity. The learning experiences and activities are designed to build teamwork and enhance leadership skills. Students deepen their understanding of race and racism and explore positive responses to address issues of racial discrimination, negative stereotypes and prejudice.
