[mukto-mona] Re: Caucus on Saturday




Clinton Visits a Seattle High School, and Student Resentments Surface



Ahlaam Ibraahim, a senior, said, "I don't trust her because of her policies and how she's always switching up. Something in my gut says she isn't about what she states she is. It's like she's putting on a show for us."

Another student, Naima Yusuf, said, "I'm still hung over her calling [gangs of kids in urban areas] 'super predators' and then saying they needed to be brought to heel. This was and is still super insulting to me."

Still another student said, "I'm not really cool with her foreign policies and how she supports Israel indefinitely. The conflict in Palestine was a problem caused by western interference and by continuing to support the occupation, we are causing the deaths of hundreds of thousands of Palestinians."

At a school with over 90% students of color and 70% on free or reduced lunch, most of the political world right now affects us directly.

My friend and DSC colleague Nazda Alam is running for a District Level Delegate seat to the Democratic National Convention. If you're a registered Democrat in the Fifth District, you should caucus for her on Saturday, at Watertown High School, 1 pm. Check your registration status at http://bit.ly/1IYJYjQ

Nazda is a social worker, a member leader of SEIU Local 509, an excellent community organizer, chair of the Muslim Voter Registration with Mass Dems, and the living embodiment of the American Dream. She deserves to attend the DNC, and the party will benefit from her presence as a representative of the South Asian and Muslim communities.

Good luck, Nazda! I hope to see you in Philadelphia!
