|
Monday, August 6, 2007
Nhien Nguyen, editor International Examiner, interviews WILD members Kevin Tain and Yuk Liang at the Seattle’s Chinatown-International District Night Market. Established in 1997, the International District Housing Alliance Wilderness Inner-city Leadership Development (WILD) project is a youth program that operates under the framework of environmental health and justice in Seattle, WA. Many of the youth in the WILD program are not native English speakers, but speak a number of languages and dialects. With common language and culture, WILD youth are well suited to assist the elders on issues concerning environmental justice, and at the same time gain a better sense of identity, community, and civic responsibility. - Seattle Neighborhood Indicator Project |
