Raza Visions May 24, 2019


Centro Cultural de la Raza
2004 Park Blvd, San Diego, CA 92101

With the 50th anniversary of Centro Cultural de la Raza approaching in 2021 the Centro is envisioning new approaches to public engagement, historic preservation and new collaborations with artists. Come get involved in the future of the organization! The event will also kick off an online fundraiser of the same name to help the space bring new projects to fruition. One of the most exciting parts of this initiative is a collaboration with design students from San Diego State University who are proposing interior designs to begin imagining renovations to the space. These designs will be exhibited in the Centro’s gallery and will be open to community input.

Immigrant Zion Marker Workers in Struggle: May 22, 2019

Immigrant Zion Marker Workers in Struggle



May 22, 2:30 pm
Room AH 200
City College Subir Dreamers Center

On Feb 13, 2019, ICE conducted a raid at the Zion Market in San Diego's Kearny Mesa community as a result of I-9 audits. ICE claimed it was targeting the employer, yet, detained 29 workers - 26 at the market and 3 at their homes.

The raid has caused fear of family separation, trauma, and economic and emotional hardship.

The workers denounce ICE's violence against them and attempts at criminalizing them for their honest work. They affirm their dignity by declaring their right to live without persecution and call for workers to organize to build solidarity with migrant workers.

Community Forum on Health and Housing Instability: May 15, 2019



You are invited to a forum on youth housing instability and health in San Diego. The event will take place on May 15, 2019, from 5pm-7pm, at San Diego City College, Rm MS-140.

The event will be co-led by a group of young adult community activists and faculty and students. The forum will consist of a photo exhibition and a brief overview of our research project using “PhotoVoice” methodology to examine health, housing instability, and stigma in San Diego.

We are inviting a diverse group of community members and stakeholders, service providers, policymakers, and researchers to participate in this action-oriented event. The goal is to spark awareness and solution-focused discussions centered around key topics emerging from the data, including stigma, Hepatitis A, substance use, and youth resources.

The event is free. Refreshments and parking will be provided. Please RSVP at the following link: www.bit.ly/Action4HealthSD. Our flyer for this event is below.
