What is the connection between the "War on Terror" and the "War on Drugs?" How can young people fight the global AIDS epidemic? How reliable is the information we get from the media? During this year's Project 2050 retreat, scholars, artists, and youth come together to explore the ways in which youth find themselves "on the frontlines" of a number of contemporary struggles. From military recuritment of young people of color in public schools to homophobia and domestic violence, the youth will explore and creatively respond to the "war zones" they encounter at home and abroad.
