Join us at the Grotto for inspiration and laughter as we mark the first event of The Forum with two trailblazing panelists Chief Yasar Bashir, the first Muslim police chief in the country, and Mizanur Rahman, the first Muslim chief editor in the country.
Date: Wednesday, February 7th
Time: 6:00 pm to 7:30 pm
Address: Grotto Ristorante, 4715 Westheimer Road, Houston, TX 77027
After hors d’oeuvres and mocktails, we’ll engage in a fireside chat with Chief Bashir and Mizanur about their rise through the ranks of law enforcement and the journalism industries, their perspectives on leadership and civic engagement, and how decisions are made behind the curtains. Hear about the hurdles they have had to overcome and the lessons they have learned along the way, and ask a few unfiltered questions of your own.
What is the Forum?
