Text of the page (random words):
rs to act as judge jury and executioner in the cases of alton sterling and philando castile the u s was built on the backs of black americans unpaid and stolen labor historically the main intent of the u s government and law enforcement was never meant to protect and serve black people in the united states the oppression and killings of black americans have persisted since the inception of the u s and yet it seems that only now that the veil of ignorance on this structural violence is being pulled back centimeter by centimeter we must remember that anti black racism is the crux of racism against other people of color we cannot achieve justice and liberation without uniting with black people as filipino americans we recognize how our struggle is connected with theirs with our roots stemming from solidarity during the civil rights movement even during the filipino american war of 1899 it was recognized how african americans from the buffalo soldiers defected from the u s to unite with the filipino people in their struggle against american colonizers the black lives matter movement exists because black people continue to be the most oppressed in american society and face the most severe social and economic difficulties the blm movement and we as filipinos should act with and under the leadership of black people it is our responsibility for us as filipino youth is to educate ourselves on blm and understand the anti blackness that is within our community in order to understand the discrimination we all face as people of color a mass movement that serves the interests of the people should be first and foremost people oriented it must aim to unite and create a collective culture where we love each other and support each other we express our deepest sympathies to the affected families of alton sterling philando castile and all other victims of state violence and structural inequality we stand firmly with black lives filipinos in solidarity with

the longstanding presence of homophobia in the u s and the policies that continue to discriminate against the lgbtq community at a state and nationwide level the true root of the issue lies in the larger system of u s imperialism that uses fascist tactics to divide its people by the use of patriarchy islamophobia and homophobia the ruling class of u s imperialists or the 1 uses the media as a tool to create disorientation to rupture trust within communities we call on members of the community to gather together and actively engage in conversations that actively supports the struggle of our

almost five decades ago the fight for ethnic studies is a continuation of sf state s revolutionary legacy from the twlf jordan ilagan lfs sfsu s chairperson said as students of sf state it is our duty to fight for relevant pro people education we should not end our actions with the meeting with president wong but continue to arouse organize and mobilize all students faculty and workers and continue

deadline that students set to release a financial report and a plan of action to ensure that the college of ethnic studies is sustained and advanced however we must remain vigilant because we know

chairperson lfs sfsu lfs sfsu gmail com fil am youth and students condemn the selling of pouring rights to coca cola and pepsi the league of filipino students lfs condemns the selling of pouring rights to coca cola and pepsi at san francisco state university coca cola and pepsi are not welcome on campus due to their unsustainable practices poor record of human rights and invasive expansion into third world countries the selling of pouring rights to either coca cola or pepsi is only the latest in the attempts to privatize and corporatize sfsu by president leslie wong while president wong claims that he is working for the best interests of the students it is clear that he only has the best intentions for the profit of the university coca cola in their presentation claimed that it was striving to make positive differences in the world in three areas water women and well being coca cola also claimed to be an empowering force in the community especially for women they asserted that they also had the best interests of the university in mind stating that they wanted to work with students and alleged that the campus s history of activism will lead to great relations between the university and coca cola i can t say that i believe you have the interest of the students and student activists in mind when you can t honor these workers jordan ilagan said during the question and answer portion of the presentation you can t honor these collective agreements that have been happening that are endangering the well being of the workers and their families that are endangering the well being of the women in the philippines endangering the water supply in the philippines similarly pepsi in their presentation to students claimed that their company was working towards sustainability and helping the community through campus influence by claiming innovations in recycling and providing healthy products pepsi representatives spoke about providing healthy alternatives

to gather over 800 signatures from students prior to coke and pepsi s arrival the mobilization included the participation of students professors and workers unions coming together in order to fight against these large corporations in the philippines coca cola is guilty of harassing and endangering the lives of union leaders as well as offering unfair wages for workers in the philippines coca cola refuses to acknowledge the collective bargaining agreements cbas proposed by worker unions and instead made propositions that can lead to massive layoffs outsourcing and threatening of job security coca cola has played a pivotal role in the weakening of worker s unions all over the world and being implicit in the use of death squads and other forms of violence to destroy union
