LULAC Altadena Pasadena Council #3217

LULAC celebrates today
Martin Luther King. Jr
An American minister, activist, and leader.
Mr. King made history speaking, and organizing in the civil rights movement, and the peace movement. A noble peace prize on 1964.
This man's faith was so strong, that as he proved his dream came true.
His words forever will echo in our life's daily challenges, as example of perseverance.
Martin Luther King says ...
"I Have A Dream"
" Darkness cannot drive out darkness, only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate, only Love can do that."
This morning in the news of January, 2018.
I was very pleased to see, and listen to Mrs. Kamala Harris, and Dolores Huerta, united as one, and in their words following by example..
" We are together." Meaning all ethnicities.
It gives me great hope, and satisfaction to see, and hear that my words from the so little published, but very seen has made already great impact followed by these Leaders today..
I hope to see more unity, and the true change can happen only when we begin the change ourselves.
Martin Luther King. Jr. Forever will live in our hearts, and in history.

To our community on January, 2018.
LULAC is making the conversation happen, LULAC, and it's progress, is simply amazing.
With the door just about to open a New Year of proven hard work, commitment, communication, and public relations, will give the assurance to all members, and society that LULAC stands for what it represents, and beyond.
Our commitment to our community, and to an organization that for decades has worked everyday to engage with people, and their necessities, has supported, and stood with injustice when it comes to defending, the
Civil Rights, of every human being.
Not only Latinos, but in general all ethnecities though our focus is to be the voice for mainly the latino community.
Now with our service, we can embrace all our members of all ethnecities.
