Uplifting the voices of immigrants and refugees in California’s Central Valley: Founded in 1998, Pan Valley Institute (PVI) is a popular education center in California’s Central Valley. The region is home to many immigrants who face economic inequality, marginalization, and discrimination. At PVI, they find a welcoming space to learn from one another, strengthen their leadership, and rebuild their world, writes AFSC’s Myrna Martinez Nateras.
Remembering Archbishop Desmond Tutu: The social rights activist played a pivotal role in ending apartheid in South Africa. His teachings and commitment to nonviolence reached people struggling for equality and freedom around the globe.
