Phipps Kari Alterman, Howard Brown, Canadian Consul General Gitane De Silva, Eli Saulson and Kara Newmark of the St. Louis AJC AJC Leaders Learn From Diplomats On Oct. 4, 10 members of AJC Detroit joined with other Midwesterners for a day of diplo- macy and advocacy in Chicago. This was the third consecutive year that AJC Detroit sent a strong delegation to participate in the Midwest diplo- matic marathon. AJC Detroit president-elect Howard Brown noted, "The dip- lomatic marathon allowed me to travel to Canada, Uruguay, Egypt and France all in one day. The face-to- face meetings with Consuls General and their staff provided an amazing forum for dialogue, advocacy and diplomacy." Vice-president Todd Mendel added, "The AJC Midwest diplomatic marathon is one of the most exciting and effective international advocacy efforts undertaken by the Jewish communities of the Midwest. There is a real sense we are accomplish- ing something very valuable for the Jewish people in the international arena, instead of just bemoaning the immense problems that face Israel and Jewish communities around the globe without taking any action." Other Detroit participants included AJC Detroit regional direc- tor Kari Alterman, vice president Alicia Chandler, officer Judy Kotzen, board members Julian Greenebaum, Eli Saulson and Sheri Schiff, and AJC ACCESS Detroit board member Jonathan Zadoff. Other AJC regional offices par- ticipating included Cincinnati, Cleveland and St. Louis as well as delegates from AJC Chicago.
