DESCRIPTION:We are proud to announce that we will be honoring the community groups 
 "Youth vs. Apocalypse" as well as "Friends of Scott and Taun Hall" with our 
 Local Heroes for Peace Award for 2019. \n\nYouth vs. Apocalypse is a 
 youth-led group of climate justice activists who are working together to 
 lift the voices of youth, in particular youth of color, and fight for a 
 livable climate and an equitable, sustainable, and just world. The Center 
 has been inspired by the movement they have been working tirelessly to 
 build and maintain in the Bay Area this year. \n\nWe are also proud to 
 recognize the work of Friends of Scott and Taun Hall, a community group 
 founded in Walnut Creek this past summer in response to the shooting and 
 killing of Miles Hall, a young African-American man who was a member of our 
 community. The group is demanding accountability from the Walnut Creek 
 Police Department as well as resources and training to be expanded in the 
 realm of mental health.  They want to cultivate a community where mental 
 health is addressed and resources are made available for individuals, 
 friends, and family who are impacted by it.\n\nPaul Larudee will be our 
 keynote speaker for the evening and will also receiving our Lifetime 
 Peacemaker Award for his long-standing commitment to peace work. He is 
 co-founder of the International Solidarity Movement and led the Northern 
 California chapter for ten years. Larudee was a key organizer of the Boats 
 to Gaza campaign, the key organizer of the Syria Solidarity Movement and 
 has been an organizer of many tours and projects in the Middle East.
