We are weary of hearing about young people being killed in SE Seattle neighborhoods. We are forging relationships and building a March For Youth; coming together to stand and march in remembrance and asking for a future. Remembering those we've lost and asking for the attention our youth need. Join us now! Show your concern for the youth of our neighborhoods.
Since the beginning of 2008, at least eight young African American men, really teenagers, have died due to violence in Rainier Valley. These are our children! Come out to plan and to march.

The plan is to march south from Franklin HS and north Rainier Beach HS at the same time, moving along Rainier Ave S, and then meeting in the middle at Aki Kurose middle school for food, entertainment, inspirational speeches, resource tables, and "what's next". We need help with everything. Call today.
