According to top educators and leaders, one of the best ways to find out is by watching NUESTRA VISION, NUESTRO FUTURO, a new video series being distributed free of charge to schools, libraries and community groups by the Portland Art Museum Northwest Film Center. The two 30-minute compilations lend themselves to classroom use, public presentations and discussion groups and are appropriate for English and Spanish-speaking general audiences of all ages. The series was created through the Oregon Latino Youth Video Project, a three-year statewide media arts education initiative of the Northwest Film Center and Oregon Council for Hispanic Advancement. Through the project 49 Latino youth, ages 14 to 19, from Bend, Ontario, Gresham and Portland worked with Northwest Film Center faculty to document their lives and communities and to share their hopes and aspirations on video. "We are showing the positive things our people are doing in the community, how we have impacted the community," explains Adam Martinez, of Ontario, one of the students who worked on the project. |
