Valley Progressives rejects the choice of Sarah Palin for 50th Anniversary gala at CSU Stanislaus and the covert process of the Foundation and its officers, which lead to the selection, contract negotiations, and recruitment of Sarah Palin. “The motive of the Foundation and its officers in inviting a polarizing personality such as Sarah Palin is highly suspicious,” said Narmelin Ovrahim, a member of Valley Progressives. “The secretive conduct of Foundation and its so-called private donors raises more questions about their hidden political agenda for our Central Valley,” added Melina Juarez, senior student at California State University, Stanislaus.
Valley Progressives believe that students, staff, and faculty have to be involved in all decisions related to the public conduct of the university and its affiliated institutions including the Foundation. The public has the right to expect transparency and accountability from all organizations affiliated with the public institutions of higher education.
Valley Progressives intent is to draw attention to Sarah Palin 's use of vitriolic rhetorical fallacies that fuel divisive politics, to require transparency and accountability for all officials’ actions on behalf of the public, and to support the rights of those whose voices have been silenced by reactionary elites and main-stream media.
There will be a series of FUN-raising activities during which, the members of the community will celebrate 50th Anniversary of CSU Stanislaus in Turlock and voice their opposition to Sarah Palin’s brand of reactionary politics in our communities. Valley Progressives will also be registering voters and mobilizing volunteers for the November election. This gathering is from 3:30 pm to 7:30 pm, Friday, June 25, 2009 in Rotary International Park, 1025 Gettysburg Street in Turlock and is open to public.

Valley Police Trained On Protesters
Officials Allude To Sarah Palin's Visit To CSU Stanislaus
MODESTO, Calif. -- Central Valley police agencies got training Wednesday on how to deal with protesters, which could come in handy when a high-profile speaker visits California State University, Stanislaus later this month.
Homeland Security officials trained officers with the Modesto Police Department, Stanislaus and San Joaquin County sheriff's departments and other agencies. Police learned how to safely remove protesters who lock themselves to each other.
Authorities didn't mention former Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin by name, but they said the techniques could come in handy in a little more than two weeks.
"We have a university just down in Turlock where a protest could go on, so something similar to this can happen. Now we have actually trained people throughout this county who can go out and detach these devices," said Doug Ridenour, with the Modesto Police Department.
They said firefighters have also been taking part in this kind of training.
