Art, Activism, Hip Hop, and the USSF
Posted July 19th, 2007 by sdiener
Hello,
My name is Mireaya Medina and I am a program assistant for United Voices in the Portland office. I work with youth to create art that challenges injustice. Also, we work to end military recruitment in our schools.
This is my first Social Forum and I have learned so much and have met many new allies and friends. I have attended workshops that include working with youth of color and the truth about hip hop & racial profiling. I marched in the opening ceremony, and volunteered at the AFSC table. I cannot wait to take what I have learned at the USSF to Portland!!!!
I thank you for your support.
