"His future is in our hands" #DYK This year Merced schools has more than $200 million from the state intended to help students specifically English language learners, low-income students and foster youth. BUT our school districts' plans only account 18 percent of this money. We need transparency in our schools. #MercedCommunitiesRise with more transparency! Parents have the right to know!

Daughter of Elizabeth Mancebo and Jose Gallardo, Crisantema “Crissy” Gallardo was born in South Central Los Angeles and has now lived most of her life in California’s heartland, the Central Valley. Crissy considers Merced, CA her home.

The youngest of three children, she was the first in her family to attend college. Crisantema graduated from the University of California, Berkeley with a Bachelor’s in Peace & Conflict Studies with a concentration on Culture and Identity. Living in the Bay Area, she engaged in on and off campus activities that helped develop her Xicana consciousness and passion for social justice.

Crissy understands the importance of organizing for racial justice and immigrant rights. Seeing her parents struggle as campesinos (agricultural laborers), motivated her to return to Merced and continue organizing. Crissy engages community members and youth by mentoring and developing their leadership skills. She motivates folks to share their own personal journeys in order to create change.  Crisantema believes that all youth are the promise of transforming communities.

This year, Sons & Brothers​ is honoring the heroes and hundreds of individuals that have fought and continue to fight the injustices faced by our communities. Over the next month, we will recognize their journeys and the ways in which they have made TODAY possible and are working to create a more just FUTURE. ‪#LatinxHeritageMonth #HealthandJustice4All (Art by Ernesto Yerena:www.hechoconganas.com)
