America Indivisible Introduces the 2021 Public Leaders for Inclusion Council 

[Washington, D.C.] — We are pleased to announce our third annual Public Leaders for Inclusion Council (PLC) cohort! This year we have an amazing group of fifteen appointed and elected public leaders from nine different states and Washington D.C. To learn more about them, please click here.

The Public Leaders for Inclusion Council (PLC) is a leadership development program seeking to convene a select number of civil servants from across the country who have shown a consistent commitment to combating bigotry and building inclusive communities. It deepens skills and knowledge on addressing Islamophobia and its impacts on Muslim, Black, Arab, Sikh, and South Asian American communities. If health conditions permit, America Indivisible and the Aspen Institute’s Inclusive America Project will host a PLC summer summit in Washington D.C.; otherwise, it will be virtual. The program concludes in September with the opportunity for leaders to apply for America Indivisible grants to fund resources focused on addressing issues of anti-Muslim bigotry in their local communities.

America Indivisible is a non-partisan, non-profit coalition effort to address rising bigotry against members of Muslim communities and those who appear to be Muslim from Black, Arab, Sikh, and South Asian American communities by reinforcing the American values of equality, pluralism, and strength through diversity.
