Read: Latino Issues Forum Invitation

Querida Hermana Nora ~
Gracias for the invite. I am busy with work and a presentation here on October 1st but I would like to know more about the Latino Issues forum.

Website:

http://www.lif.org/

I live in Sacramento but make it to the Bay Area every now and then. How many gente from the Latino Mission District will be attending? Sometimes as activists we forget to work in our own backyards and often certain events are too expensive for the average poor and oppressed Latino/Chicano working class member. Nevertheless, keep up the good work and feel free to join up with the Network Aztlan and check out our Yahoo Groups.

Please click Links below.

We can and should utilize the power of the Internet to reach out to others, but sometimes the Internet itself can be a distraction from local community education work that needs to be done.
