the event was well organized. John Renehan spoke REALLY eloquently and passionately about what EnVision does and about his love for youth leadership/development work. i'm glad the slide projector broke down because we got to actually look at him and his presidential looks while he spoke!
Tulaine, the keynote speaker was REALLY incredible. she spoke about preparing young people to grow up and take on the leadership challenges they face in a fast changing world and one where they have to deal with changes in race and how it's understood, where there is a shift in the dynamics of class and also of the reasons why a lot of people, especially those from poor backgrounds do not complete secondary education.
my brother was at the event, fresh from zimbabwe. he loved it!
