About Me

In September 2000, building upon a decade of major United Nations conferences and summits, world leaders came together at United Nations Headquarters in New York to adopt the United Nations Millennium Declaration, committing their nations to a new global partnership to reduce extreme poverty and setting out a series of time-bound targets - with a deadline of 2015 - that have become known as the Millennium Development Goals.The Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) are the world's time-bound and quantified targets for addressing extreme poverty in its many dimensions-income poverty, hunger, disease, lack of adequate shelter, and exclusion-while promoting gender equality, education, and environmental sustainability.They are also basic human rights-the rights of each person on the planet to health, education, shelter, and security. **endpoverty2015.org**

Band Members:"The only justice is Christ--God's justice. We're the victims of a lot of shenanigans by the courts but ultimately, down the line, real justice comes.""You must understand--I must make you understand--that our membership and the hopes and aspirations of the hundreds of thousands of the poor and dispossessed that have been raised on our account are, above all, human beings, no better and no worse than any other cross section of human society; we are not saints because we are poor, but by the same measures neither are we immoral. We are men and women who have suffered and endured much, and not only because of our abject poverty, but because we have been kept poor. The color of our skin, the language of our cultural and native origins, the lack of formal education, the exclusion from the democratic process, the numbers of our slain in recent wars--all these burdens--generation after generation have sought to demoralize us, to break our human spirit. But God knows that we are not beasts of burden, agricultural implements or rented slaves; we are men locked in a death struggle against man's inhumanity to man...And this struggle itself gives meaning to our life and ennobles our dying.""Today I don't think that I could base my will to struggle on cold economics or on some political doctrine. I don't think there would be enough to sustain me. For me the base must be faith."Cesar E. Chavez
