2006 : The Good

The Immigration Rallies
By 2015, the largest ethnic group in the country will be Latinos. The rallies are the beginning because, come 2008, we Latinos will be swinging the vote. The GOP knows it --that's why they appointed a chicano as their chairman.

Muhammad Yunus
He won a Noble Peace Prize for proving that poverty not only leads to violence but that the poverty of women, and the violence inherent in that poverty, affects whole nations.

And the "So good it's bad, bad, bad" Award goes to...

Stephen Colbert coined the phrase but the art of truthiness was perfected by Sacha Baron Cohen in his movie Borat.

He is so good he is bad. Badass cool. Brothercool cool. Borat has turned Cohen into the sexiest Orthodox Jew in Hollywood.

Words to live by

hmmm. i received this email from NARAL today. i'm not sure i like it much. there's just enough ignorance in it to piss me off. i mean, what century are we in that "latinos" and black women are the *only* women of color? what happened to asian, arabs and native women? and the three "pillars" that are being organized around, community control, holistic health, and positive motherhood, sound like they have been re-written by some over anxious white dude who doesn't want to piss off the white women who support NARAL (established women of color org's *do* organize around these things, it just sounds like the fierce women of color language has been co-opted). and the email title is as follows: " It's time to Recognize! the reproductive health needs of women of color". ummm, is it really time? forty years after women of color started organizing on their own because white women couldn't bear to make us a part of the movement, it is *finally* time?
grrr.
