The Human Rights Gathering is all set for April30-May 2, 1999. The
conference will be held at Centro Cultural, 1014 19th Street, South
Moorhead near Moorhead State University; ND.
The conference will open with a speaker on Friday,April 30 at 7pm
and the speaker will be Hector Martinez, Director of Centro Cultural
and a Chicano Activist of many years who will speak on Racism and
how it affects people in general.
On Saturday, May 1, 1999, We will begin our first full day of workshops
with presenters speaking about various kinds of issues of racism. We will
have students presenting on the issues of mascots and racism in sports and
how to win support for these issues. Other workshops will include name
changes of historic tribal places that have been distorted and now native
people are making a move to change name to a more accurate history.
There will be a total of 5 workshops on saturday along with a working
group to develop a much needed Human Rights watch group in the Northern
plains. Anyone with information on developing such a group can bring your
expertise to the gathering. There will be two meals served on Saturday,
lunch and supper. On saturday, evening a cutural presentation and supper
will be held to entertain our gathering and if you have any kind of skills
with music bring it with you this will be the night to entertain.
On Sunday, May 2, 1999, there will be two workshops and our last gathering
for the weekend and hoping that our Human Rights Watch group will be in
place by then. The main and overall purpose of this conference is to
bring people together and build a networking relationship with those who
strongly believe in justice and to develop a strong Human Rights Watch
group.
If you have this interest then we encourage you to attend this
very important gathering. Registration cost is $20 for the public and $10
for students with ID, this will assist in paying for the two meals,
speakers and information for the gathering.
Your support is much needed for a sucessful gathering.
Any questions please feel free to e-mail me at the above address and
presenters for workshops are needed and we have 7 workshops open
for the weekend. If your interested give us a proposal via e-mail.
