I had a watershed moment yesterday. I was pacing, writing notes and just
simply amped.
The 100 Visionaries Mission came to me.
Our mission is to work to create a better future for our young people
through local and national activism and policy lobbying.
The strategy for achieving this is a five pronged effort. The first is
having regular one on one interactions with young people through
reflection retreats.
The second is supporting local members who share our vision,
and are running for office such as city council or the board of education.
The third is lobbying around policies that effect their lives such as
ending mandatory minimums, creating a national Prop 36 legislation,
eliminating zero tolerance in schools, and ensuring that public school
funds are equitably distributed within the school district.
The fourth is through supporting and promoting artists, writers, musicians,
who are our vision of a better world for young people.
The fifth is by working with other organizations who are doing related work.
One of us may not have an impact. But, 100 hundred of us is a Movement.
Our organization is a learning organization. Nimble, eager and ready to take
action. Contact me directly with further questions at m.dotwrites@gmail.com.

the mommas or the rappers“, would bring us to this?
