TO PRESERVE AND SHARE THE LEGACY AND IDEALS OF MUHAMMAD ALI.
EDUCATIONAL TOURS AND PROGRAMMING. PROVIDE OUTREACH TO SCHOOL CHILDREN PRIMARILY IN GRADES K-12. PROGRAMMING THEMES INCLUDE CIVICS AND CITIZENSHIP, CIVIL RIGHTS, CHARACTER EDUCATION, AND OTHER TOPICS THAT ARE BASED ON THE TEMPORARY EXHIBITS ON DISPLAY AT THE CENTER. THEY INCORPORATE THE LEGACY OF MUHAMMAD ALI AND THE SIX CORE VALUES OF THE CENTER: CONFIDENCE, CONVICTION, DEDICATION, GIVING, RESPECT, AND SPIRITUALITY. YOUTH PROGRAMS ALSO ENGAGE STUDENTS IN A VARIETY OF SOCIAL JUSTICE ISSUES, GENDER EQUALITY, AND GLOBAL CITIZENSHIP.
DIVERSITY TRAINING PROGRAMS. IN 2020, THE MAC LAUNCHED A NEW SERIES OF DIVERSITY, EQUITY, INCLUSION, AND ANTI-RACISM TRAINING PROGRAMS. THESE PROGRAMS ARE INTENSIVE LEARNING EXPERIENCES. USING THE LEGACY AND CORE PRINCIPLES OF MUHAMMAD ALI (CONFIDENCE, CONVICTION, DEDICATION, RESPECT, GIVING, AND SPIRITUALITY) AS GUIDEPOSTS, PARTICIPANTS EXPLORE PERSONAL AND COMMUNITY BIAS, WITH A FOCUS ON SYSTEMIC AND INSTITUTIONALIZED RACISM, IN A SAFE AND SUPPORTIVE ENVIRONMENT. LEARNERS DISCOVER THEIR CAPACITY FOR CREATING POSITIVE SOCIAL CHANGE, AND HOW THEY, LIKE MUHAMMAD ALI, CAN BECOME LEADERS AND CHANGE AGENTS IN THEIR COMMUNITIES, NATIONS, AND THE WORLD. THESE WORKSHOPS AND RETREATS ARE CREATED FOR BUSINESSES AND ORGANIZATIONS INTERESTED IN EDUCATING THEIR EMPLOYEES WHILE FOSTERING EQUITABLE AND INCLUSIVE COMMUNITY-BUILDING. PROGRAMMING IS ALSO AVAILABLE FOR ADVANCED HIGH SCHOOL AND COLLEGE STUDENTS AT A DISCOUNTED RATE.
PUBLIC PROGRAMS AND EVENTS. PROVIDED TO OUR DAY-TO-DAY VISITORS TO THE CENTER, THESE VARIOUS PROGRAMS GENERALLY REFLECT ON THE CENTER'S MISSION AND SIX CORE VALUES, AS WELL AS CONFLICT RESOLUTION AND MULTICULTURALISM. IN 2020, THE MAC LAUNCHED THE "I AM AMERICA: RACIAL JUSTICE SERIES" A PROGRAMMATIC SERIES OF BOLD, COURAGEOUS AND PROVOCATIVE CONVERSATIONS TO EXPLORE THE MOST PRESSING RACIAL JUSTICE CHALLENGES OF THE DAY. NAMED AFTER MUHAMMAD ALI'S FAMOUS QUOTE, "I AM AMERICA. I AM THE PART YOU WON'T RECOGNIZE," THIS UNIQUE PROGRAM OFFERS CRITICAL ANALYSIS OF THE HISTORY AND INTERSECTIONALITY OF RACIAL JUSTICE ISSUES, WHILE OFFERING ACTION STEPS FOR THOSE WANTING TO CREATE POSITIVE SOCIAL CHANGE.
