My Weekend in La Hatte!
 |
| Me hard at work hammering the tin roof |
This past weekend a couple friends and I spent 4 days in a small community near Archahaie called La Hatte, volunteering to build houses with the non-profit organization "Un Techo para mi pais". I have to be honest this wasn't a piece of cake at all, sleeping bags, no lights, no power, early mornings, aren't quite my things but seeing the faces of the family upon completion of the house made it all worth it, here are a few pictures of those moments. For more information on Techo click HERE . Click Read More for more pics...

WHY WE DON’T FIGHT: HOW THE U.S. CRUSHED YOUTH RESISTANCE
"I’ll be the first to admit it, I’m an apathetic American. Lulled to sleep by the convenience of American life, I find myself putting more energy into my weekend activities than social causes. I can name 20 bars in L.A, but I can’t name five Congressmen in America. I don’t want to admit that, but it’s true. But I’m not the only one. I think we’ve all been pacified to a degree in America, but as young Americans the now, and especially the future will be in our hands. My friend Amaka shared this article on the lack of youth resistance in America. A pertinent topic for most of us, columnist Bruce Levine shares his thoughts on why less and less American youth are fighting back.
