Harrisburg Chamber to host live webinar on systemic racism
Ioannis Pashakis//June 11, 2020
The Harrisburg Regional Chamber & CREDC will host a live webinar Friday on how the business community can stand with the region’s black community.
The webinar is scheduled for 9 a.m. and is free to the public.
Speakers include Meron Yemane, vice chair of the Chamber Board of Directors, and Amma Johnson, a member of the Chamber Board of Directors and founder and owner of AMMA JO, a beauty brand based in Harrisburg.
The webinar will focus on how businesses can stand with the black community to close the opportunity gap and create more inclusive cultures, according to the chamber.
David Black, president and CEO of the chamber, said that the organization stands with its members, the broader business community and the entire black community against systemic racism.
“We know we can do better,” Black said. “For the sake of our collective future and that of our children and grandchildren, we must do better. Together we can move the needle.”
