Marcus Agrees to Review ADL Anti-Bias Programs

Brandeis Center Founder and Chairman Kenneth L. Marcus has agreed to review anti-bias programs and curricular materials from the Anti-Defamation League, as recently reported by eJewish Philanthropy.

.

Marcus will independently review ADL’s anti-bias and bullying-prevention materials, as will diversity consultant Carol Fulp, Common Ground USA Executive Director Nealin Parker, and psychology scholar and academic freedom advocate Pamela Paresky. The four experts will work separately – not as part of a panel, as reported by eJewish Philanthropy.

“It takes courage and character to reach out like this, admitting that you could use the assistance of sister organizations” in the Jewish world, Marcus told eJewish Philanthropy. “I don’t go into the program with preconceptions. ADL’s programs are both widely used and influential, so it’s important that they be well-crafted, bias-free and generally excellent.”
