California UN Millenium Development Goals Youth Film Project sent to the UN

Ensuring Environmental Sustainability is a mouthful and sometimes hard to get across in a manner that is appealing.  Crossroads School in Van Nuys and the Downtown LA Youth and Cultural Center teamed with digital arts instructors and Flip Cameras to bring the UN's MDG goal #7 down to size.

With warmth, celebration and passion, they took an "I'll show you mine- If you show me yours" sing along approach.

The result is visible on Youtube under the title "River Flowing" at the Waterbuddyweb blog.

See for yourself.  Watch for more great things from New Education Options, Dream Project, Focus Bella and Planetary Transformations.  The young people involved came from Mexico, China, South America, LA, and broadly represented LA's family of man.  They poured their hearts into this new festival and the results can move your heart.
