RACIAL JUSTICE COMMISSION

The NYC Racial Justice Commission (RJC) invited Filipino American organizations to offer knowledge, feedback, and testimony to examine the City’s foundations to identify structures and systems that by design, implementation, or impact enable and perpetuate inequitable power, access, and opportunity. Little Manila Queens Bayanihan Arts was invited to participate in a panel about civic engagement on August 24, 2021. The RJC invited partner organizations to meet with the Commission to respond to the RJC’s report highlighting Six Patterns of Inequity on November 12, 2021.
