UCSC's Practical Activism Conference 2013
My name is Anum Qadir and I'm a student planner for the 11th Annual Practical Activism Conference at the University of California, Santa Cruz. I'm reaching out to press outlets regarding our event that is about being practically active regarding social justice issues. It is aimed to make the public aware of current social, economic, and environmental injustices and to empower & inspire each participant to make a difference through activism. With guest speaker Jose Hernandez, spoken word performance by Storm Thomas, and specified workshop topics we offer a day of engaging with other enthusiastic activists on campus!
In hopes to reach out beyond the campus community, I have attached the flyer for our conference. It mentions the specific topics our conference will cover. I recognize what a busy time of year this is and appreciate your support in our efforts to reach the Santa Cruz community about this social and global justice event.
