Youth Assembly II, May 28


From here to the Middle East, young people are rising up, taking action, and transforming the world! In California, everyone has been affected by outrageous budget cuts in our schools. It's time for the youth to take back control of our education and put these budget cuts to a halt!

Get angry people!!! Over the last three years, 50 % of the funds for K-12 schools in California have been cut (that’s $3,000 per student!). At the same time, community colleges (like SRJC) have lost $1.2 billion, while fees have gone from less than $11 per unit, to $36 per unit by next fall. In the last ten years, state schools (like Sonoma State) have seen a 290% increase in student fees. The list goes on...

Join us for a Youth Assembly
on May 28th, 12-3pm at the Arlene Francis Theater
in Santa Rosa
to discuss the issues that affect our lives, come up with demands and visions for a better world, and build a movement to bring us closer to our goals. It is imperative that these issues are addressed so get active and fight back!!!!!


It's free to get in and there will be free food, drinks, and literature.

Pass the word along and invite all your friends!!! See you on May 28th!


In solidarity,
Strike! Hella Youth Organizing for Power
