TruDiversity
In 2014, in the wake of increased national and international attention to US police violence against Black Americans, several Truman National Security Project members formed the TruDiversity Initiative. The purposes of the Initiative are to:
1. Speak Out
Speak out against civil rights/social justice injustices in the US, and offer thought leadership on how these violations affect broader foreign policy and national security interests
2. Encourage
Through training, professional development opportunities, and mentoring, encourage more members of under-represented minority groups to enter the field of national security.
3. Amplify
Amplify contributions of minorities and under-represented groups in the field.
