   Thought your organization might be interested in a new resource that fits well with your mission to ensure all new Americans can fully participate in building a more united and sustainable Minnesota economy. What Every Immigrant Needs to Know is a new guidebook to help new Americans understand and navigate U.S. laws, systems and culture. Here’s an article with more info – http://www.dailycamera.com/archivesearch/ci_14161819?IADID=Search-www.dailycamera.com-www.dailycamera.com

   Dear MIFN friends,

   On July 21 at 7 pm at the South City Cafe, 3405 Chicago Ave S. in Minneapolis there will be a meeting to discuss how Minnesota will participate in Ethnic Studies Week October 1-7.

   Ethnic Studies week October 1-7 is a national response by involved in education, to the ban of ethnic studies in Arizona that specifically targeted Mexican American and African American curricula in the Tucson public schools, and new Texas State Board of Ed social studies standards that, among other things, diminish civil rights education.

   In localities across the country schools and community groups are meeting in July to plan their activities.

   Please bring your friends and your ideas. Pass this email on to anyone who might be interested. Respond to this email if you have agenda items.
   RSVP so we have an idea of how many are coming.

   Ice tea, regular and herbal will be available free of charge and South City Cafe food and drink will be available for purchase during the meeting.

   Hope to see you there! ,
