Active Citizenship (Politics, Activism)

Goal of Life in Maximum Security: Meet your new teacher.

by on Feb 9, 2012

"I’ve discovered that the energy of devotion is the same as the energy of gratitude. ... Even here in a place like this it is easy to find gratitude for many things, like having yard every day, for having programs so we can rehabilitate ourselves, for having many like-minded people I can talk to, for getting three meals a day, for the sunshine…”

Suzanne & the Black Panthers. ~ Sherri Rosen

by on Feb 8, 2012

I came to the Party with that background. I taught people how to read, fill out forms (welfare, social security). I would help them write letters to their sons in Vietnam, and be able to read information concerning them. Then we started the breakfast program. It was Huey's idea that we needed to do more things in the community.

Stephen Colbert: America’s Satirist. ~ Jeff Fulmer

by on Feb 6, 2012

As we were laughing at “Americans for a Better Tomorrow, Tomorrow (ABTT),” we were actually learning how a complicated legal entity works, as well as the inherent dangers in allowing anonymous donors to funnel unlimited amounts of money into campaigns.

Redhead’s Rap: Give & Take & Give Again. ~ Sherri Rosen

by on Feb 4, 2012

“Humans have a natural openness to reciprocity. It’s a time-honored survival technique, one that allowed us to live together in villages for millennia. Someone who doesn’t reciprocate is less likely to be protected by his peers, right? Not only have we been taught reciprocation since birth, but it feels right. It’s baked in.”

Organic farmers challenge Monsanto in community lawsuit.

by on Feb 3, 2012

For the past 12,000 years farmers have saved the best seeds each year to increase yields and improve traits for the food we eat," said Dave Murphy, founder and Executive Director of Food Democracy Now! "In 1996, when Monsanto sold its first patented genetically modified (GMO) seed to farmers, this radically changed the idea of how farmers planted and saved seed."

Put That Down! We Can’t Afford It.

by on Feb 3, 2012

I have been complicit by ignorance. Things often have a cost we didn’t suspect. We cannot be aware of everything. This is the cost of living. To be aware of every transgression and to make it a business to fight every transgression is a full time and sorrowful job.

Be Grateful for Newt Gingrich? ~ Monique Ruffin

by on Feb 1, 2012

The question is, "Are we ready to look within ourselves for our inner Gingrich? Do we have the courage to acknowledge our own ideas of elitism and our desire to exclude those we see as different or less-than? Have we ever lied to or cheated on those closest to us for personal gain?"

Zero Waste Kitchen. ~ Bea Johnson

by on Feb 1, 2012

Friends have asked me to blog about what they can do to reduce their household waste. I think its time that I wrote about what we did and are doing in our house. Let's start with the kitchen.

“Wellness that Worx” – American Alternative Health Care Ingenuity.

by on Jan 30, 2012

It dawned on Ms. Nelson, who also has worked as a marketing and communications consultant for businesses, that there was something she could do to help meet this need. Her vision was to create a win-win solution whereby clients in need can obtain alternative health care treatments at a reduced cost and whereby practitioners can grow their businesses by dramatically increasing their clientele. Hence, the “Wellness Networx.” Wellness Networx is a network of alternative health care providers in and around the Boulder area that offers services at affordable discounted rates for members.

I Know How God Feels.

by on Jan 27, 2012

I find the rhino more noble than Jerry. There is a perfection in the beast, which the killer hiding behind his gun (and the backup guns all around him) lacks. I believe paying hunters are cowards and thieves. They hide under the strong arms of the professional hunter. They are stealing a false sense of virility, which they wear like the cheapest cologne on the planet. They don the fool's grin, but not in a good way.

Our LGBT Children.

by on Jan 25, 2012

This pillar of strength is needed now more than ever because with each day that we sit in silence— for each day that we are not reminding our children that it gets better, that there is meaningful life beyond the abuse—we lose another soul.

Hot or Not?

by on Jan 25, 2012

I'm choosing to abandon my "recovery" ideal of living on the edge of health. If that is where I end up fine, but if it isn't what happens then so be it. I have more to live for than subcutaneous fat. Of course an eating disorder isn't really about the subcutaneous fat, but putting it in such blunt terms sure sounds ridiculous, right?

What did the Progressive Christian say to the Evangelical Atheist?

by on Jan 25, 2012

The Boulder Atheists announced Monday that the group has purchased space on three billboards in Denver and Colorado Springs to post messages that read, "God is an imaginary friend. Choose reality, it will be better for all of us."
