Y porque no?

AMC.
We need to get there.
We have fundraised, asked for grants, compromised, felt energized, asked for days off, gotten free airline tickets, borrowed time, overcharged credit cards and emailed/talked/made plans with friends and strangers across the lines.
And still call us shameless, we ask for more. Y porque no?

Many of us will be taking part in the Women’s Media Equity
Summit on July 16th.
At the AMC, we’ll be involved in several different caucuses, meetings and generally raising
a ruckus wherever you may find us. And OUR KIDS WILL BE CAUSING ALL SORTS OF MAYHEM AT THE KIDS TRACK AND IN GENERAL. It will be a sight to see. Things will happen. We will write/blog about it.

Hermana, Resist is a personal, political zine with literary tendencies which manifest in forms of poetry, free verse, haiku, short stories, journal entries, rants, raves, critiques, commentaries, photos and more. Issue #1 was published in 2000. My life has literally been documented in zines, you can piece together my life throughout the years.

If you don’t like to hear about racism, there not being such a thing as white racism; sexism, talk of people of color, motherhood and being a single parent; poverty in the US and among minorities(tsk); if you believe in war; have a problem with queer people or if you think English should be the official language of US- you probably won’t like HR. Newsflash-this site is called HERMANA, RESIST. Pretty obvious. I’ll entertain your debates or hateful discourse on my politics but won’t entertain you; meaning I won’t reply or enter into any such correspondence.

    Are the e-mail addresses also PayPal addresses? Inquiring minds want to know.

    [...] VivirLatino, my work as a mami’activist, a poeta, through Speak, and for the Sanctuary, is connected to my life and my values. The work that I do I don’t do for a check or for fame or recognition. It’s done because it has to be done, because it’s the kind of world I want to live in and strive for, because I am la comunidad and the comunidad is me and my hijas and you. [...]
