The Latinx Heritage Club and Psychology Club invite you to share your take on the theme “The Struggle Beneath the Surface.” Share your story with us at 7:30 p.m. on Thursday, April 5, in Hoover 105.

Why this theme?

This event will be during Cesar Chavez Week. Chavez was an activist who understood the harsh working conditions migrant workers experienced and the hardships they faced. He was a hero because he fought for better working conditions and pay. Most importantly, he took a stand, combining his personal convictions with the genuine interest of the public against oppressive forces.

These oppressive forces can manifest in many forms: discrimination, poverty, internal struggles, etc. Sometimes liberation happens through speaking out about the raw personal struggles we all endure behind closed doors. The moments we make ourselves vulnerable are terrifying; however, it is in these moments we can relate and come together as a community.

In light of this, Spoken Word will center around the theme “The Struggle Beneath the Surface.” Everyone has a past and has struggled to be who they are. We would like to give individuals a shot at performing poetry to achieve catharsis and a form of personal closure.

At the end of the night we hope our audience will leave with a greater awareness and understanding of “the struggle beneath the surface.”

Want to perform? Email Stephanie Garcia-Cruz (sgarciacruz14@georgefox.edu) by Wednesday, April 4, with your bio (three to four sentences about yourself).

Do you know a student who may benefit – or have family members that may benefit – from access to fresh produce as well as staple foods (rice, pasta, tortillas, canned vegetables, etc.)?

If so, keep Newberg FISH in mind as a resource. FISH provides food assistance in a respectful way to all those who come in and voice a need. They have a rule that they never turn anyone away.

To be eligible for a full food basket (with USDA food) there are some basic income restrictions, and a student must live in Newberg or Dundee. However, even students who do not meet these standards are eligible to receive the non-USDA food selection available at FISH.

A student simply needs to take a piece of his or her mail to the office. No Social Security numbers or intrusive personal details are collected. All FISH materials are available in English and Spanish.

To learn more about FISH, visit their website at newbergfish.org or write info@newbergfish.org. The office is located at 125-A S. Elliott Road in Newberg.

A charm bracelet has remained unclaimed in the Newberg lost and found for a while, and we’d love to see it reunited with its owner. Please come to the security office with a detailed description (charms, brand, color etc.), and when you lost it, to claim it!
