21 years, easy to say but... Escribir en español entre organizadores del NW es un gran logro obtenido gracias al apoyo de ustedes. I will never forget how comfortable all the Western States Center staff made me feel back on 1996. it was the first time I was around so many organizers with a lot more experience than myself, but I felt like been home with real brothers and sisters who can back me up on the struggle and who I can back them up on their issues. The Center had, has and will have what is needed to mix the blood and the heart of the activist on the NW, regardless of our back ground and perception about the struggle for justice. Today I'm no longer work directly with any organization, but I keep the fire of justice on my heart and I know if I get to the CSTI it will be the best place to see a lot of my brothers and sisters. Western States Center, ¡GRACIAS POR EXISTIR! I wish you many more years of celebration. Here, a good phrase to share, from me to you. "La mejor forma de agradecer al creador por lo que tienes y a tus maestros por lo que has aprendido, es COMPARTIENDOLO" If you don't share it, is not worth to have it. Felicidades y gracias otra vez.
