New York 2 New Orleans

The New York 2 New Orleans Coalition (NY2NO) is a youth-led, consensus-based organization made to create a network of young people who are interested in organizing and mobilizing across New York City. NY2NO works in solidarity with those most affected by the social, racial, and economic inequalities in both New York and New Orleans. Through this, the youth breaks down barriers and works together to combat racism and classism and move towards an egalitarian society.

February Trip 2013- Day 2

Workin' hard or hardly working? Guess!

Where else are a bunch of New York City teens learning about farming by getting our hands dirty? That's not all we've learnt today- thanks to Turner we can safely say we know about the plethora of injustices and the stagnant local economy pre and post Katrina- and how Our School at Blair Grocery is working for and within it. Excitedly tired- the oxymoron to describe most of us reflecting while showering the dirt off our shoulders ;)
