Practicing Ethnic Studies community responsiveness meant centering the voices, knowledges and hearts of our youth and familias. We learned from their creation. #heartwork #ethnicstudies #communityresponse #napavalley

Heartwork & In Lak’Ech was central to the LYP. Our 5th-12th grade Ethnic Studies pathway program served at 5 schools, influencing, transforming & becoming an instrumental part of each school’s community culture. Artist: LYP youth. #heartwork #ethnicstudies #napavalley

In the LYP we showed up for each other cada día. We supported each other cada día. We navigated a system not built for us cada día. We lived and practiced In Lak’Ech cada día. ¡LYP por la vida! #heartwork #ethnicstudies #napavalley #inlakech

The radical love that was cultivated, given, received and shared can never be taken away from anyone who experienced a day in the Legacy Youth Project. We are Ethnic Studies. #heartwork #ethnicstudies #radciallove #napavalley #weareethnicstudies

Our greatest achievement was to witness our youth grow to love themselves. When society didn’t see them, was otherized or saw them as the problem, we taught them to love themselves. Dignidad is measured in our hearts & actions. That’s Ethnic Studies!

The Legacy Youth Project was beyond a class and curriculum. Our 5th-12th Ethnic Studies program was a practice of developing consciousness, heartwork, healing, service, joy, love, solidarity and In Lak’Ech. #heartwork #ethnicstudies #napavalley
