WHO WE ARE

Date: April 5th

Call in Number: 619-924-0736

In todays' society, we often overlook the challenges that our young people are faced with day to day. We become insensitive to all the barriers they have to overcome. Most of our communities are plagued with gun violence, lack of mentoring or role models. Our Youth are targeted not only by gangs but also by those who have sworn to serve and protect them, the schools that are designed to educate our Youth teach them about history but none of that history involve their cultures or about their ancestors. The voices of our youth often ring silent, their accomplishments go unpraised and unrecognized, and their struggles forgotten. Instead of screaming from the top of our lungs not on our watch, not in our community because of work and what we identify as priorities and obligations we're forced to watch as this new generation hurdle pitfalls and move mountains as best practices. Today we are going to be hearing from a group of young Lions and Lioness who call themselves OUTKAST. They live in a diversified area in San Diego California called City Heights. In this episode entitled WHO WE ARE we will hear the true definition of commitment, trauma and strength and SURVIVAL.
