graduation

In this video, Maria Diaz talks about working with other East Oakland parents to rehabilitate a school from abandoned portable buildings, and her hopes for her children. Her daughter Marycruz talks about her memories of playing with other children at the school, and her dream of graduating from college.

This video was made by the awesome young producers of our media partner Youth UpRising at our second Community Storytelling Day. They interviewed, videotaped, and edited the video.
