Fearless Feminists No. 1 - Emma Goldman



Recently I've been reading up on the anarchist and political activist Emma Goldman. I thought it would be interesting to profile her. So here's a bit of a summary, as well as some links to additional information and writing. I've also posted a video on the main page of Sa… Continue

Taleban Bans Education of Girls in North Western Pakistan

The Taleban would rather bomb and destroy schools then see young Pakistani girls receive an education.

Filed Under: WTF!?!?!- Oklahoma State Rep. Sally Kern talks about how the GAYS are infiltrating city councils and other helpful insights.

Having grown up and associated with by and large respectful, open minded, tolerant people for most of my life I'm always thrown a little when reminded that there are still some people out there this far out to the right on social issues.

This woman Sally Kern (who I am categorically ashamed to share a first name with) is a government official elected to speak for a section of the population. She speaks about the "Homosexual Agenda", how homosexuals are trying to "Indoctrinate" children as young… Continue

I am very sick with the flu. I am pretty sure it's H1N1. It's a really, really bad flu - but I have had just as bad with a much worse cough. The most worrisome symptom, (since I am not throwing-up - I rarely do - unless drinking), is the heaviness...

OK, my last post on this, at least for today! Two other thoughts after I hit "Add Reply": It's very important to acknowledge the weight of the burden you carry as a survivor and to not be too hard on yourself. This is not easy. It takes a lot of...

The 48th Parallel Project is A ROCK ISLAND PRODUCTION.

HOUSEKEEPING

Our name was inspired by a survey of elected women in governments worldwide showing Canada in the disappointing position of #48. And over the past two years we've dropped to 50 and risen to 47....
We're a politically motivated, artistically driven platform for feminists interested in challenging the status quo.
We invite filmmakers, artists and activists to express themselves and contribute their art and ideas.
We're committed to showcasing female artists and to connecting with women around the world.
We believe we have a responsibility to support womens' struggle for human rights and equality globally.
We also believe in using art and entertainment to mix it up in the political world.
Our logo is by young Newfoundland artist Isabelle Riche. Welcome!
Please drop me a line here, anytime!
Cheers, Rosemary
