Other honorees will be the Coalition for Educational Justice (CEJ), a multi-racial, anti-racist grassroots membership organization of teachers, students, and parents working for a radical transformation of L.A. schools; UCLA?s Institute for Democracy, Education, and Access (IDEA), a network of educators, students, and activists committed to making high-quality public schooling and college participation routine occurrences in low-income neighborhoods of color; and the Community Coalition?s South Central Youth Empowered Thru Action (SC-YEA), a dynamic youth group dedicated to developing the next generation of activists capable of leading their peers and impacting public policy in their schools and community.

California State Assembly Member Jackie Goldberg, who chairs the Assembly?s Education Committee, will emcee the event. Entertainment will be provided by Conjunto Jarocho Xoloitzcuintli, playing music in the Vera Cruz style, blending Spanish, African, and Indian influences.
