Rad and Desi?
If so, this is your space!
Youth Solidarity Summer presents its
2007 Organizing Youth Conference
the most RADICAL birthday bash ever!!
WHEN: April 13-15 (Friday evening to Sunday afternoon)
WHERE: New York City (@ the historic Brecht Forum!)
WHAT DO WE PROMISE: Conversations, discussions, some dreams, a little inspiration and lots of Fun!!
WHAT NEXT: Hold the Dates and Get in Touch!
Youth Solidarity Summer is ten years old. But this is not our birthday alone – in fact, we are celebrating a decade of progressive South Asian American youth activism. When we began in 1996-97, we were part of a fledgling desi youth culture which included such efforts as Azad Lounge and Trikone in California, Basement Bhangra in NYC, Des Pardes in Toronto. . . Soon after, there was a veritable explosion of all things Desi from one coast to the other, and sister institutions to YSS soon emerged: OY! in California, RadDesi in Texas and similar efforts in Boston, Toronto and D.C.
These early experiments and initiatives have now translated into a range of South Asian American youth organizations, and a plethora of individuals – young film makers and musicians, DJs and Organizers. Desi youth are taking on the challenge in almost every struggle for social justice – whether anti-imperialist or anti-oppression – peppered across North American cities and campuses.
Clearly, there is much to celebrate. However, alongside the growth of this progressive (cutting) edge of the desi youth movement, there has also been a simultaneous growth of the Desi youth right wing – both economic and religious. At the end of this decade of radical desi activism, therefore, we on the South Asian Left must assess our past and plan for the future. And what better than a weekend retreat in New York City to share our experiences, reaffirm our commitment to struggle, renew our energies and strengthen our solidarity? Youth Solidarity Summer's 2007 'Organizing Youth Conference' will be just that – a Radical Desi space where we can plan the next ten years.
Register Now!! we promise you a birthday bash quite unlike any other! A limited number of travel stipends are available for those who don't have the cash to travel to NYC. (We SAID it was unlike any other party!) For details please visit www.youthsolidarity.org or Contact us: yss-info@proxsa.org

Youth Solidarity Summer
YSS is a volunteer collective of artists, activists, educators and students providing alternate education for South Asian youth since 1997. Youth Solidarity Summer's mission is to provide radical political education for young activists of South Asian descent. YSS aims to build a movement of youth activists engaged in anti-oppression work, and to create a forum to share organizational and political strategies. The long-term goal of the program is to create solidarity among a new generation of activists fighting for social justice.
