The Urban Youth Collaborative brings New York City youth together to fight for change through local and citywide organizing strategies. We strive for social and economic justice throughout our communities — overcoming obstacles to make sure youth voices are heard and youth empowerment is emphasized. We, as a coalition, are committed to building a strong youth voice that can ensure our high schools prepare students to go to college, earn a living wage, and work for justice in society.Well, they did it today. They created a racket in NYC, leaving school and protesting, Greek-style, the loss of their "free" metro cards.
Do these people not understand that New York is broke? Literally? And why is it that "social justice" ALWAYS involves MONEY? And protesting? And lying? And cheating? And I thought churches won't supposed to get involved in politics? The Collaborative is in New York, Massachusetts, California, Georgia, Texas, Ohio....numerous places. Look here to see. You can check out the millions of dollars they have in revenue. Gee, wonder who started this.
Here they're upset about "equity in access" to college and college bills. Who will pay?
Here no one cares about teen gangs or dancing opportunities.
Here they're working Working Families of America. You remember them. ACORN?
