Third World Forum
Anti-imperialist newspaper of Pootahtoi (the indigenous name of the region now known as Davis)
We stand against all forms of oppression and their manifestations such as imperialism, colonialism, racism, zionism, sexism and heterosexism. We demand that the University of California uphold its own mission statement of providing "service to the region, state, nation, and the world" through the following actions:
1. UC Regents to stop funding terrorism and the occupation in Palestine by divesting their $6.4 billion from "Israel."
2. UC Regents to divest from the Corporate Prison System and fight the Prison Industrial Complex.
3. UC Davis to make good on promises establishing the Cross Cultural Center at a new location as an autonomous and student-run space protecting our freedom of speech and organizing.
4. UC Davis to create an autonomous Ethnic Studies College.
La Palabra
hace la fuerza!
La Palabra is a bilingual publication organized and produced by Raza students for Raza and the local communities on the UC Davis campus. La Palabra was created in order to promote our ideals of education and progress.
Our mission is to educate our community about issues that profoundly affect us as a people. In addition, as a progressive publication, we seek to develop social, cultural, and political consciousness to our community. The name of our publication reflects our desire to establish a forum for cultural communication, utilizing the written word. Therefore, we hope that through La Palabra, we can not only inform, but incite community members to partake in the political process as active individuals of our society. As students and members of the community, we hope to offer our readers a publication that aims to present the truth about the current issues and realities. For those writers, artists, poets, and students that care about the community and truth, La Palabra serves as a stepping stone to launch your thoughts and ideas.

Advocacy Now!
students for comprehensive medical care
Advocacy Now is our platform to create awareness in the community and to provide resources for low income workers. By spreading the message we can provoke change.
One Drop
a publication dedicated to the mixed experience
The mixed community is faced with this reoccurring question: What unites us? We are not united on the basis of gender, ethnicity, language, nationality, lifestyle, religion, or any of the obvious connections that unite groups of humans. So what is it that makes the mixed race community a community?
We are not all exotic, we are not all mysterious, we are not all physically attractive or genetically superior. We are all mixed. We are the real thing. We are people who struggle daily for the freedom to identify, to understand, and to be understood.
We all have one drop of something, and we are all united by the bond of one drop. We are a vast array of races, religions, lifestyles, languages, cultural and ethnic heritages. We are countless One Drops, United at last.
awaaz
a South Asian American magazine
The South Asian and Middle Eastern American population has entered yet another year of targeted hate crimes, government monitoring, detentions, and unjust deportations.
We are all fighting the same battle. Let us come together and show the world that our collective awaaz will not be suppressed. We ask that you join us in taking the pledge: I pledge allegiance to the coalition of the united people of color, and to the principle for which it stands, one movement, under hopes of equality, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.
