Council Member Dinowitz inquires about cross-cultural discussions and initiatives at CUNY, and Ilya Bratman from Hillel responds with criticism of the current training and dialogue programs.

  • Bratman highlights failures in training programs, particularly those conducted by the NYC Commission for Human Rights

  • Bratman expresses that Hillels are forced to conduct interfaith and intergroup dialogues without support from CUNY campuses
