The 'Forgive and Forget' dancy party in Richmond

The “Forgive and Forget Dance” is a community project from Alondra Reyes and Vanessa Jimenez, both 8th grade students and members of the Latina Center’s Young Latina Future Leaders program. In between the music, Reyes and other speakers urged the group of 80 students to stop the drama, or conflicts at school. “When you begin to start drama you get conflicts and consequences,” says Reyes. ‘Drama develops into bullying. I had drama with somebody but we cleared it out. We are good now.” Read the story on Richmond Pulse.
