About MBJC: Our mission is to increase the understanding of, and interaction between, Jewish and Black people through dialogue and programming. We advocate on an ad-hoc basis with definitive action to particular issues of concern to the Jewish and Black communities, and provide a mechanism whereby each community can express its support for the critical issues of the other community.
