Poster presentations included: "'Community Works': Engaging Young People in Action," by students from Northwestern High School in Hyattsville, Maryland; "Nin@s Latin@s: A Grassroots Advocacy Campaign" by Kim Patterson and Vincent Perez (Georgetown U); "Community Networking with the DC Schools Project" by Miranda Wilson (Georgetown U); "Social Justice Analysis: Theory & Practice" by Dr. Joe Palacios (Georgetown U); "Project DC: Community Based Research" by Dr. Sam Marullo (Georgetown U); "Community Based Research in a Social Problem Course" by          Dr. Roxana Moayedi (Trinity College); "SAIL School for the Arts Volunteer Experience" by Lauren Bagley (American University); "FLYouth: Facilitating Leadership in Youth in Southeast" by Sunny Shin (American University); and "Issues in Human Services" by Dr. Honey Nashman's service learning course students (George Washington University). Linking artistic expression with social change, Sol y Soul's Spoken Resistance concluded the midday break with a captivating performance of their songs and poetry. Margaux Delotte-Bennett and fellow group members shared their spirited verses celebrating the beauty of community unity and love and denouncing rap artists whose lyrics degrade women and deny the existence of racism. After the performance, group members interacted with the audience to discuss issues mentioned in their artistic expressions.
