Location: The Heritage Foundation's Lehrman Auditorium
Building upon a successful program held
this past February - and just days in advance of the Millions More
Movement event slated for Washington, DC on October 14-16 -
prominent Black conservatives from across America will gather on
one stage to discuss critical issues confronting Black Americans
and our nation at large. The Brotherhood Organization
of a New Destiny (BOND) and The Heritage
Foundation are co-sponsoring Reclaiming Our Destiny: The New
Black Vanguard Conference II to reflect further upon policy
questions of major significance to America's minority
communities.
Is too much government dependency
destroying Black families? What role did racism play in the
Hurricane Katrina response? Are establishment Black leaders
exercising legitimate moral authority or simply fleecing their
constituencies? How well are Black churches combating the moral
crisis in urban America? How can Black Americans achieve true
success? These and other questions will be addressed by our
distinguished guests.
October 11 also marks the paperback release of Reverend Jesse Lee
Peterson's widely acclaimed book, SCAM: How the Black
Leadership Exploits Black America. Copies will be available for
purchase and to be signed by the author.
