Alumni Film Featured

October 12, 2010

Good news to report on the ongoing work of one of our most talented graduates, Leilani Montes. Leilani's and Victoria Fong's film "Since Salazar" was chosen for screening at the 40th anniversary of the Chicano Moratorium in East LA and was recently featured on Democracy Now (http://www.democracynow.org/2010/8/31/slain_latino_journalist_ruben_salazar_killed). Leilani was a recipient of the William Friedland Award (2005) and after graduation worked as a union organizer with the Change to Win Federation. Thanks to Paul Ortiz for this news item!
