WONDER WOMAN DAY III - New Jersey
Sunday, October 26, 2008 -- 12 am - 5 pm -- FREE

I saw Tim Wise speak yesterday!

He was incredible! So so smart and passionate about ending racism.

he said a lot of stuff about Obama and the presidential race. One of his first points was that if O wins, we should not kid ourselves that his victory says _anything_ about the larger systemic reality of race and racism in America and that it is highly dangerous to speak of his potential victory (or even getting this far) as a signal of the end of racism in America. pretty radical, huh? I wish I was smart enough to articulate the argument for you all. I did record part of the talk so maybe I can upload it.

Blogging the Debate?

I loved the discussion about the VP debate but I totally missed it when I was watching.

Anyone care to join in? I'm interested in the town hall format tonight. They say McCain is good at these things and that Obama prefers big crowds, but I don't know. Old guy creeps me out and Barack seems like someone I could have a solid discussion with.

Results of 8 months of HARD Work

My agency has a beautiful PSA! Check it out:

My annual event is this Friday

if you don't know, I raise money for the Portland Women's Crisis Line www.pwcl.org

When I was hired, the event was held in a tiny winery, and on Friday just 4 years later: The Crystal Ballroom!

If you are in Portland and want to come, PM me and I'll give you my direct line at work.

watching the white guys (& occassional white woman or black man) speak

I'm watching the DNC convention on PBS right now.

Just waiting to hear from the black woman. I think I like Michelle Obama better than Barack.

But after she speaks, mamas....watch this site for the mess that will follow: www.michelleobamawatch.com

I am so glad she is there, though. I am so happy that my girl can look up to her, even if they don't win - maude, god and buddha help us. thanks, Michelle.
