Today was a good experience editing my TB video. Since I have been involved with the tom bradley project I have learned the importantance in coalition building. Coalition building has taught me that in order for a movement to happen we have to work together  make a difference. I had a chance to interview candice and what I learned was that Tom Bradley was influencial  in her life by letting her be involved in this program about bradley. I really like editing the film I think it's important to learn different skills since  technology is getting so advance every day.

The Country we live in today is filled with so many different types of races and cultures, and so many people with different ideas that if collectively put together can benefit the world to an great extent. This is one of the reasons i believe that a coalition is needed in america today, especially Los Angeles. Los Angeles is a prime example of a city in need of a coalition. Today in our society their are various amounts of different cultures that hate each other for no apparent reason. One of the biggest race issues going on in Los Angeles is the Black vs Latino feud.

My name is Osmin Alberto. I am from El Salvador, I have approximately 3 years living in the United States. I recently graduate from Thomas Jefferson High School and I’m planning of becoming a civil engineer with a minor at Graphic Designing. I just want to add that I feel proud of being part of this project with Urban League, CD Tech and the opportunity it gave me of meeting intelligent individuals. It is a great project that enables students to become dedicated while having a good time with classmates. I wasn’t to thank the staff and classmates for this wonderful opportunity. Thank you.
