David Dinkins

It was an honor to have spent some time getting to know Mayor Dinkins last week. His actions and values are consistent with those promoted by Coro. In his three years in office he made great strides in human rights efforts as an outspoken advocate for the elimination of apartheid, and stood up for student rights by instituting the office of Special Commissioner of Investigations for schools and creating a system of after school youth centers.

Our interview was part of an upcoming film for CORO New York. CORO is recognized by the leaders of New York as a great organization for the people of New York.
