Defend Ethnic Studies, Teach-in!

Monday, April 18 · 9:30am - 12:30pm
Napa Valley College in front of the McCarthy Library
2277 Napa Vallejo Highway, Napa
Napa, CA

April 18th has been declared a national day of action to defend ethnic studies.
The Student Multicultural Alliance views ethnic studies as a necessary and crucial aspect of college curriculum.
We find attempts to ban ethnic studies, such as those in Arizona, extremely alarming.
We therefore, support the April 18th Day of action to defend ethnic studies.
The Student Multicultural Alliance will be conducting teach-ins in front of the McCarthy Library during the day.
These teach-ins will be accomplished by faculty bringing their classes outside, in front of the library, to conduct a lesson plan related to ethnic studies.
These discussions will cover ethnic studies from the perspective of the respective disciplines being taught by the professor.
Students will be allowed to choose which teach-in they wanted to attend.

The purpose of the teach-ins would be to:

1. Raise awareness about the importance of ethnic studies.
2. Bring together faculty and students that support ethnic studies.
3. Demonstrate to the college and community that there is mass student and faculty support for more ethnic studies courses and degrees at Napa Valley College.

Spread the word! And, feel free to attend! We hope to see you there!
