CAFE at Berkeley

Central Americans for Empowerment seeks to build a CentAm student community to ensure that our narratives are heard #CentralAmericanTwitter

[CAFE at Berkeley @cafeucb]

East Los Ángeles Community College just became the first CC to implement Central American studies, but UC Berkeley says it’s too much money to create a CentAm Studies Dept. We have an endowment of $6.8 Billion, while ELAC shares a budget of $642m between 9 other CC’s…

@glhfcarlos Gracias @glhfcarlos te mandamos un abrazo!

[carlos says Spurs in 7 @glhfcarlos]

Go support Central American students at Berkeley! They're putting together their own scholarship to support the community. If you can, please support too. A RT goes a long way.

[Agustín 🇸🇻 @yeahvicho]

We put a lot of love and intention behind this scholarship project. We are marginalized, put aside, and too often disrespected within “Latinx” organizations and spaces. CAFE will forever aim to empower and organize Cent Am folx within and outside of Cal. #centralamericantwitter

[CAFE at Berkeley @cafeucb]

Hola #centralamericantwitter it is with love of community we are kickstarting a scholarship fund for Cent Am students at UC Berkeley! Please consider donating and/or RT or share with your immediate communities to reach a larger audience. Gracias Mucha! 💞https://t.co/7QpFJr4uEr

The Central American Studies doc is finally out! Link will be in my bio. I’ll continue to work on adding more overtime with what I find + your suggestions

I hope everyone will be able to use it as an accessible guide to learning more about the isthmus :) #centamtwitter

[CAFE at Berkeley @cafeucb]

Hey #centralamericantwitter can we drop/share Afro, Black, and/or Garifuna Cent-Am leaders/organizations/community centers in the Isthmus or US to uplift and highlight? We’d hella appreciate it!

More land dispossession in Central America, this time El Salvador.

Over 300 families, residents of the Island of Tasajera, are being forcefully displaced to make room for tourism. This is Nayib Bukele’s El Salvador, too.
