Teen Summit

The Teen Empowerment Summit of March ’08 was simply amazing. Each speaker that attended had so much to offer that kept one focused in every word they spoke. The summit was based on facts and misconceptions of gangs as well as how to live everyday life as a youth or adolescent. It was a night full of entertainment, laughs and interactions with speakers who went through harsh situations but got out of them safe and sound to tell their stories. I was very shocked at stories I heard from the ex-gang members and all that they went through. Also, through laughter, I was taught about every day alternatives and decisions I have to take that I don’t even consider sometimes. It was a fun night worth repeating.

Robotic Reunion

This is a motion picture video edited and created by Cessily Murph, Farzana Chowdhury, and Chereese Douglas. Serge was the computer manager and helped us when we had difficulties. This was both a new and interesting experience because we learned how to make our video more appealing.
