UBW BOLD: Step Forward Leadership Summit Part 1

CHECK OUT PART TWO HERE: • UBW BOLD: Step Forward...
The 2013 Step Forward Leadership Summit was facilitated by Urban Bush Women BOLD (Builders, Organizers, and Leaders through Dance) with the People's Institute for Survival and Beyond. It is a project of the Cultural Alliance of Greater Birmingham, with funding from The Kresge Foundation. March 10 -- 15, 2013, the Summit centered around the birthday of Birmingham Movement icon, the Rev. Fred L. Shuttlesworth, who would have been 91 on March 18.
Honoring, and building upon, the foundation of the 1963 Birmingham Civil Rights Movement, the Step Forward Leadership Summit provided 50 current and emerging leaders with learning experiences in community engagement and organizing, social advocacy and purpose-focused artistic creation.
We addressed the citywide theme, "50 Years Forward," in commemoration of the Birmingham Movement's 50th anniversary and its pivotal role in American history. Just as Birmingham, Alabama helped transform the world 50 years ago, the Summit sparked positive community transformation in 2013 and beyond.
