Francisco bear the brunt of multiple social, academic, and health inequities. There are harmful institutions and public policies that criminalize youth of color, while neglecting their basic needs and perpetuating intergenerational cycles of poverty and trauma. There is a critical need for educational settings to incorporate culturally relevant pedagogies and practices, with an innovative curriculum that develops empowered identities who have a deeper analysis on the conditions of their urban environments. In a rapidly gentrifying city with the lowest population of children than all major cities in the U.S., our contribution to movements for youth justice is our multidisciplinary model and approach to the empowerment of young leaders who defend the last remaining working-class families. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ff55bd44c771f39d6a977bd/1611132341652-YYILPVTYT5637AUU2QVC/Theory+of+Liberation+-+Image+2 Theory of Liberation - solution We envision empowered and equitable communities, where systems are transformed to comprehensively meet the needs of youth through holistic systems of care, healing, and well-being. Across inner cities nationwide, youth have been central creators and leaders in their communities. In light of the resilience of young people of color, we uplift their historical role in the frontlines of diverse movements for education, health, equity, and social justice. We believe that Critical Hip Hop Pedagogy and Ethnic Studies frameworks can be used in diverse settings of youth development to honor their resilience, while supporting their understandings of self-determination, agency, and health equity. When youth are provided holistic, asset-based, culturally relevant spaces of shared-power, then young people can be supported to reclaim their futures by implementing action plans that directly confront social inequalities to positively shift lifelong health trajectories of their communities. https://www.415elements.org/campaigns-2021 daily 0.75 2021-02-01 https://www.415elements.org/who-we-are daily 0.75 2026-02-10 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ff55bd44c771f39d6a977bd/1611876663028-4BZ4Q8MJ1OTGMX85G1E8/Juana+Headshot+2.jpg Who We Are - Executive Director & Co-Founder juana teresa tello, MPH Juana is a culture keeper and freedom seeker whose skillset meets at the intersection of education, organizing, and the arts.

Violeta is the result of many contributions made by family including community members, nonprofit organizations, and Ethnic Studies. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ff55bd44c771f39d6a977bd/1611137878643-F68K05PSKV6WLM4ZKLQO/Max.JPG Who We Are - Visual Artist & Program Staff Maximillian Martilla, BFA Max is a fine artist and muralist who graduated in 2011 from the San Francisco Art Institute with a Bachelor’s in Fine Arts and has since worked heavily with Precita Eyes Muralists as well as other organizations and schools across the Bay Area.

Max recognizes the power of mural making and team building which empowers youth by giving them control over their own visual landscape. His studio paintings reflect these endeavors and a sense of community through a blend of portraiture, abstract landscape and collage. https://www.415elements.org/supporters daily 0.75 2026-02-10 https://www.415elements.org/contact daily 0.75 2026-02-10 https://www.415elements.org/programs-and-services daily 0.75 2021-02-05 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ff55bd44c771f39d6a977bd/1611851636327-83HC1TQXND77GF6T9UHU/968075A4-B073-4F6C-BC16-226DF755F52D.jpeg Programs & Services https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ff55bd44c771f39d6a977bd/1611851637620-AUP4MOYMTRJ4IL1D9IS1/DSC01987.jpeg Programs & Services https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ff55bd44c771f39d6a977bd/1611851637825-Y2XJG9U4P9B9T0QXRUHE/FA063650-2D01-4CD4-89FB-300C6B4CBB05.jpeg Programs & Services https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ff55bd44c771f39d6a977bd/1611851651243-UCGZFT4TKX9MOYS713EN/girl+spraypaint.jpg Programs & Services https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ff55bd44c771f39d6a977bd/1611851640598-U2UHPPONA5RVJZ2GAYKU/group+mural+tour+2.jpg Programs & Services https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ff55bd44c771f39d6a977bd/1611851647607-5G8MX2AS01REIS9QSZA0/IMG_1303.jpeg Programs & Services https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ff55bd44c771f39d6a977bd/1611851665967-HVY7MVR2ZZT6IHX4ODNF/IMG_3398.jpeg Programs & Services https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ff55bd44c771f39d6a977bd/1611851665044-70GHYI3V1SUPUV91ANFA/IMG_6569.jpeg Programs & Services https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ff55bd44c771f39d6a977bd/1611851659241-HO5QI2YSS1JF9AGXIZ7Q/IMG_9513.jpeg Programs & Services https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ff55bd44c771f39d6a977bd/1611851665941-SGZYWBWUSN9OK92I1R2Y/IMG_E0704.JPG Programs & Services https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ff55bd44c771f39d6a977bd/1611851666203-IRCAJJKV2429F5M9RKKA/mural+2.jpg Programs & Services https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ff55bd44c771f39d6a977bd/1611871659207-5NAOGC6PL5N9K1HU3O3S/StudentWork.JPG Programs & Services https://www.415elements.org/theory-of-liberation-1 daily 0.75 2021-02-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ff55bd44c771f39d6a977bd/1611873283999-Q7GZOEDC6IPSZNZM0XZQ/File_001.jpeg Theory of Liberation (Copy) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ff55bd44c771f39d6a977bd/1611873283582-AJ1QUEZBO4SB59AU8175/File_002.jpeg Theory of Liberation (Copy) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ff55bd44c771f39d6a977bd/1611873282810-GDXJQ3QG9ZWQ36J2DMCK/IMG_0056.JPG Theory of Liberation (Copy) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ff55bd44c771f39d6a977bd/1611873279930-TXULMATCGQ4XDOOBIHIR/IMG_0065.JPG Theory of Liberation (Copy) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ff55bd44c771f39d6a977bd/1611873276061-G4RRP6DIDV8PZL3T7087/IMG_0639.JPG Theory of Liberation (Copy) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ff55bd44c771f39d6a977bd/1611873281561-EXEI7WUYSP4NB32CE08F/IMG_0641.JPG Theory of Liberation (Copy) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ff55bd44c771f39d6a977bd/1611132272813-VPM6B9A8G4XY7VOEFQQ2/Theory+of+Liberation+-+Image+1 Theory of Liberation (Copy) - Problem Inner city youth or color in San Francisco bear the brunt of multiple social, academic, and health inequities. There are harmful institutions and public policies that criminalize youth of color, while neglecting their basic needs and perpetuating intergenerational cycles of poverty and trauma. There is a critical need for educational settings to incorporate culturally relevant pedagogies and practices, with an innovative curriculum that develops empowered identities who have a deeper analysis on the conditions of their urban environments. In a rapidly gentrifying city with the lowest population of children than all major cities in the U.S., our contribution to movements for youth justice is our multidisciplinary model and approach to the empowerment of young leaders who defend the last remaining working-class families. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ff55bd44c771f39d6a977bd/1611132341652-YYILPVTYT5637AUU2QVC/Theory+of+Liberation+-+Image+2 Theory of Liberation (Copy) - solution We envision empowered and equitable communities, where systems are transformed to comprehensively meet the needs of youth through holistic systems of care, healing, and well-being. Across inner cities nationwide, youth have been central creators and leaders in their communities. In light of the resilience of young people of color, we uplift their historical role in the frontlines of diverse movements for education, health, equity, and social justice. We believe that Critical Hip Hop Pedagogy and Ethnic Studies frameworks can be used in diverse settings of youth development to honor their resilience, while supporting their understandings of self-determination, agency, and health equity. When youth are provided holistic, asset-based, culturally relevant spaces of shared-power, then young people can be supported to reclaim their futures by implementing action plans that directly confront social inequalities to positively shift lifelong health trajectories of their communities. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ff55bd44c771f39d6a977bd/1612481120014-5VOCB9MI0UDH52K4N9PR/Stencil Theory of Liberation (Copy) https://www.415elements.org/vision daily 0.75 2024-09-26 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ff55bd44c771f39d6a977bd/1611131432320-DUWT4CREBHSH7B3VG619/vision.png Vision https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ff55bd44c771f39d6a977bd/1611131489282-A05Q1LLPVXR5CN7Y2OT4/community.png Vision https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ff55bd44c771f39d6a977bd/1611131529602-GLCASMVO1A0RQ38MU95B/movement.png Vision https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ff55bd44c771f39d6a977bd/1611131554018-JNV6TTW8G16SIZH4JRM1/culture.png Vision https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ff55bd44c771f39d6a977bd/1611131581817-2HR0LB45XU1RWFG2O8UV/knowledge.png Vision
