The recent mayoral forum organized by over 35 multicultural chambers of commerce at Brooklyn College emphasized critical discussions on small business issues, public safety, housing, and economic inclusion. Although five candidates participated, the absence of some prominent figures raised concerns among organizers and community leaders. This event marked a significant gathering of diverse business leaders across various cultural communities, showcasing a united call for attention to the challenges faced by small business owners, particularly in Black and Brown neighborhoods. Moderator Monica Morales emphasized the importance of economic discussions in the current political climate.
This is about real talk, Morales said. Money mattersespecially for our Black and Brown communities.
The forum was the first of its kind, bringing together an extraordinary array of business leaders and chamber presidents from across the city's cultural spectrum.
