Join us this Thursday, June 5th at 6pm for an opportunity to hear from mayoral candidates about pressing issues facing our communities today - immigration, public safety, housing, and food insecurity.
The conversation will be moderated by Ray Suarez, veteran journalist and host of the upcoming PBS series, “Wisdom Keepers”, and author of the recent book on the modern era of American immigration, "We Are Home: Becoming American in the 21st Century". The Rt. Rev Matthew Heyd will offer opening words and Rev Al Sharpton will provide closing comments.
Candidates participating in the forum include Michael Blake, Brad Lander, Zohran Mamdani, Jessica Ramos, Scott Stringer, and Jim Walden.
**Please note: Candidates of all political parties were invited to participate.
