Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Students

Our young high school students face the most difficult social problems that big city youth face any where with courage and creativity. We wish to give them the tools to document what they are learning, both in school and in their inner-city neighborhoods.

We tell them that they each have a unique view of the world and that developing the ability to document their experience will benefit them, their families, and those that view their documentaries.

Our students are urban California residents aged 13-18 who have histories of substance abuse and incarceration. These youth tend to reside in neighborhoods with high incidences of poverty, unemployment, substance abuse, and crime, and are routinely faced with high levels of violence inside their families and in their immediate community. A disproportionate number are youth of color, particularly African American (57%) and Latino (31%). A recent review found that 80% were from single-parent low-income households; 47% have been in out-of-home placements including foster care and many have engaged in sex in exchange for money, drugs, or other goods. Many have limited life skills, minimal or no job skills, multiple health issues, and low self-esteem.

My Project

We are using the power of video and digital photography as tools for studying Science, Social Studies, History and Language Arts. We are in the first year of a three year collaboration with Youth Voices, where students and teachers are given training from media professionals to learn to produce, direct and edit digital and video images using Adobe Photo Shop, Premiere Pro, After Effects and Flash to produce broadcast quality documentaries. Your generosity is a direct investment in dramatically improving educational opportunities for students who have traditionally been shut out of college and university education. You are on the right path to making a huge difference in the lives of California's neediest and absolutely most promising students.

This is a great way to get around the bureaucracies that often limit innovation, and invest in quality educational projects that will benefit not only the neediest children, but the communities they live in.

Your generosity leads students who have traditionally been shut out of college, right up to the door of the ivory tower, camera in hand!
