Harvard Business School celebrates Black History Month with a conversation with Bonnie Boswell, award winning journalist and executive producer of The Powerbroker: Whitney Young’s Fight for Civil Rights.
Boswell will discuss the leadership lessons of Whitney Young, one of the most celebrated and controversial Black leaders of the civil rights era. Young took the fight directly to the powerful white elite, gaining allies in business and government, including three presidents. His work helped erase stereotypes, opened opportunities for minorities, and continues to influence diversity in America today.
Moderated by Ethan Rouen, assistant professor of Business Administration. Please watch the documentary prior to the discussion. The link will be sent following your registration and can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lwKw37t5NnE
