Upstate Latinos seek to gain leverage through unity – New York
Tagged: activist, New YorkPosted on: September 15th, 2007“A group of local Latino activists and community organizers are taking their concerns on the road. To Buffalo, to be exact.
That’s where Latinos from five upstate communities will be meeting next week in what they believe is the first regional conference of its kind.
They’re hoping to build muscle while pushing an agenda they say has largely been overshadowed by their big-city amigos downstate. As a native upstate Latina, I’ve seen talk fests like these come and go, with mixed results. Yet I’m hopeful that this one could make a difference.”
