DESCRIPTION:A wise African American leader once said that a people without the 
 knowledge of their past history, their origin, and their culture is like a 
 tree without roots. While we would all hope that our society would provide 
 every child with a nurturing foundation that includes a profound 
 understanding and respect for their roots, we know that is not the case. 
 That is why Movimiento Estudiantil Chicanista de Aztlan (M.E.Ch.A.), Black 
 Student Union (B.S.U.), Logrando Exito Academico (LEA), and Latino Student 
 Congress (LSC) have united to host a Youth Conference at Santa Rosa Junior 
 College on April 25th from 8-4pm. The conference is completely free and 
 open to 6th-12th grade students and their parents, as well as college 
 students and community members. It will be conducted in English and 
 Spanish. At a time in our country’s history when young people are 
 becoming more conscious about critical issues facing their communities, it 
 is important to provide them with education and mentorship. \n\nThe 
 organizations are also looking for the community’s support in the form of 
 a tax-deductible donation or volunteering. The conference goal is to raise 
 $7,000 by March 20, 2015. You can help in developing the next generation of 
 leaders. The organizations will happily provide donors with a taxpayer 
 identification number. Checks can be mailed to MEChA de SRJC c/o Rafael 
 Vazquez EOPS Department 1501 Mendocino Ave. Santa Rosa, CA 95401. Donations 
 can also be made into the Santa Rosa Junior College Account “Fulfilling 
 the dream.”\n https://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2015/03/19/18770130.php
