Best of 2009 Blog Challenge: Workshop/Conference
December 6 Workshop or conference. Was there a conference or workshop you attended that was especially beneficial? Where was it? What did you learn? At the beginning of the year, the women’s organization I ran was invited to speak at a workshop for teen girls in Detroit. We stood on stage and [...]
Feminists are funny
Yesterday after work I met the TG’s at OCC to see the Guerrilla Girls On Tour perform. They are a feminist theatre troupe that assumes the names of dead women artists and wear gorilla masks in public, concealing their identities and focusing on the issues rather than their personalities.

Sundays in the D: Belle Isle
I got up early and headed to Belle Isle for the ‘Tales Not Sales’ picnic. Essentially it was a way for all us metro-Detroit activists to meet up and get to know each other without pitching our political agendas. It was really refreshing to hang out with people I usually work with and spe [...]Tags: Sundays in the D, TG

Monkey Tan
Race For The Cure was this morning. Got lots of compliments on our shirts…guess we should have entered the t-shirt contest afterall. I’m always terribly annoyed with the whole thing, trying to get everything organized, until we get down to the event and get caught up in all the action. [...]Get yo race on
I finally finished all the shirts for tomorrow and they turned out awesome. I only had to go buy iron-on transfers three times! Sat down and started printing them today and my ink cartridge runs out. So I called Kate to have her stop at Kinkos and get one before she came home, which totally ... [...]Bored Blog
I’ve been pretty much bored to tears all day and haven’t had much motivation to come up with anything to entertain myself. I updated, un-updated, and re-updated various layouts on the website all day as things were being tested. I was eating a “lightly textured crunchy multi-grain& [...]
