United Voices

United Voices 'zine

United Voices is a program of youth (currently ages 14-26) in the Portland Metro Area. We are youth of color; we are queer youth; we are immigrant youth; we are young men, women, and gender variants. We come together to make connections, share our experiences, learn from one another, educate ourselves on issues of oppression and take peaceful action toward a more just world. We publish a magazine titled "United Voices"; that analyzes current events and our own experiences critically; examining the power, privilege, and oppression we see throughout our society. We have also put together several popular education workshops on multiple oppressions, gender roles, alternatives to the military, gentrification, globalization, and global debt. We do these workshops for classrooms (high school and college), for the community, and for Portland Freedom School.
