"The TUSD Governing Board was forced to cancel its meeting Tuesday night after ethnic studies supporters stormed the meeting room and chained themselves to chairs.

The board was scheduled to consider a proposal that some Mexican American Studies courses would no longer be used to fulfill core-curriculum requirements." -Arizona Daily Star http://azstarnet.com/news/local/education/article_176f8aed-4b95-53fc-9b49-0959cd5a26e5.html

Last year our Muslim brothers spoke out in orange County to protests Israel Ambassador,this year people are organizing to lift their unjust charges. And our Chicano youth protested in Arizona on Wednesday against the cuts to education that affect ALL of us. We will not be ashamed or afraid. These times call for great courage, passion and commitment.
