  “We have to deal with it.  We’re trying to save as many lives as possible.

Pediatrician Manam Husham, referring to the harsh conditions in Sadr City and Ibn Al-Baladi Hospital

Baghdad -- Hanna Yousef Tamer watches hopelessly as her year-old daughter, Mahdi, writhes on pink sheets in a crowded ward of the Ibn Al-Baladi Pediatric Hospital in the Shiite neighborhood of Sadr City . The feeble child cries and looks around the bustling room through hollowed eyes.

American Federation of Teachers Events Press Release, City College

  Can the U.S. Government legislate learning by peacefully and productively involving Americans of all ages in the classroom of the world?   

  Can Congress entice a million Americans to do this by funding increased practical educational opportunities as well as granting college tuition payments in exchange for service at home or abroad?  

   Dwayne Hunn will be speaking on the citizen-initiated World Service Corps proposed congressional legislation that would involve a million Americans each year in domestic and international learning, serving, and building.  The public is welcome on November 22nd at the American Federation of Teachers General Meeting at 4:40 p.m. at Room 202 of John Adams Campus of City College.  The John Adams Campus of CCSF is at the corner of Hayes Street and Masonic Avenue, near the Golden Gate Park Panhandle.
