I always think of my grandmother, and my parent's journey as immigrants, leaving behind the only home they had ever known. They arrived in the United States seeking a better life for us, their children, and their grandchildren, though they knew the road would not be easy. With nothing but hope, resi

96th Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Birthday Commemoration

Let's reclaim his radical legacy!

Dr. King was not merely a dreamer, he was a doer! He was not one who advocated for small changes, but "We are going to have to change the system!"

How do Dr. King's thoughts, words, and actions apply to the burning questions of today: human rights, human needs, equity, community, love, hate, war, and peace?

Speakers will address the changes ahead in the light of Dr. King's words and deeds.
Cultural performances will include a libation ceremony, poetry, drumming, and dancing!

The event will be held in the Digital Humanities Center (formerly the Friends of the Library bookstore) at the campus-side entrance to the King Library.

Free and open to the public
Wheelchair accessible
Free parking is available in the city parking garage north of Santa Clara Street.

Organized by the Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Legacy Committee

Co-sponsored by All-African People's Revolutionary Party, Ambedkar King Study Circle, Ethical Culture Society of Silicon Valley, Human Agenda, Jewish Voice for Peace South Bay, Leonard Peltier Support Group Silicon Valley, NAACP San Jose/Silicon Valley, San José Against War, San José Peace & Justice Center, San José Public Library, Silicon Valley Immigration Committee, Women's International League for Peace & Freedom

Human Agenda Signs Up 20 Participants for Trip to Cuba

Co-sponsored by the U.S. Federation of Worker Cooperatives (USFWC), Human Agenda has organized its 7th Emulation Tour to Cuba on November 9-17. The trip will highlight the advances of the Cuban people under a six-decade blockade by the United States and the new democratically operated worker-owned cooperatives that are providing a model of economic and social development.

In addition, both Human Agenda and the U.S. Federation of Worker Cooperatives are co-sponsors of Cuba’s Second International Symposium on Cooperatives that will take place from Nov. 12-16.

As part of that international conference on cooperatives, Human Agenda has organized three plenary sessions and a workshop entitled The Coop Movement in the United States.

Emulation Tour participants who will present to the entire conference include Cira Pascual Marquina, professor and author who will focus on the commune movement in Venezuela; Ricardo Nunez, President of the USFWC who will explain the history, reach, and goals of the USFWC; and Richard Hobbs, Human Agenda founder, who will present “A New Human Agenda”.

The US coop movement workshop will include Aldo de la Mora from the California Center for Coop Development; Salvador Gonzalez from the Center for Community Wealth Building in Denver; Jasmine Gomez, Co-Director of Resist in Massachusetts; Nicole Rodriguez with Wholehearted Bookkeeping and the NYC Network of Worker Cooperatives; and Karina Pacheco del Rio, Communications Director at the Democracy at Work Institute (DAWI) in Puerto Rico.
