Raza Unida Youth Conference Workshop Sign Up

Thank you for showing interest in presenting a workshop for RUYC. The date of the conference will be January 31st, 2019. The theme of the RUYC this year is Alumbrando la Oscuridad (Shining Light on the Shadows) so our focus will be mainly shining a light on Central American migration. Our objective of this conference is to bring awareness to the social issues that have and are currently affecting the Central American communities. Although we encourage a different variety of workshops, we highly encourage workshops on these issues including TPS, Mexican hegemony, and separations of families, etc.

Wk 1: Ni de aqui, ni de alla

 

Wednesday, January 10 6 PM – 7:30 PM

Location: Multicultural Center (EMU)

We hope everyone had a great break! This Wednesday the focus of our meeting is to get familiar with the phrase “Ni de aqui, ni de alla,” a phrase we may often hear during the movement. One of the ways we will do this is by exploring what we mean by ‘Chicanx’ and the importance of the way we speak with each other.
We will also be going over who MEChA is and going over some awesome topics we will discuss over the term.
Cant wait to see you all there!
