      Welcome to the blog Khandi. This is a blog and while the readership is growing it is not nearly as widely regarded as my previous blog. Might I suggest you contact BlackFemiPower at flipfloppingjoy.com or Racialicious at racialicious.com both of which have a much wider readership?

    sister,
    i am not sure how i found your blog. either way, i am absolutely grateful that i found your words, your thoughts. it was timely reading the post on lent. since the beginning of the year, i have been wrapped up, almost obsessively inclined, in the search of our lady and her different reincarnations. reading the post and oogling on the poster, had to google the artist, i knew it as an affirmation of what i feel. i haven’t blogged in years,it makes my heart swirl in happiness that there are other sisters such as yourself who have kept the cord going. btw, i love vandana shiva. i discovered her work while living in kenya. her book, ecofeminism travelled with me to america.now, that i am preparing to travel to the next adventure, i am at loss what to carry with me. what are your essential la revolutionary texts, fiction or otherwise. email reply would be great. also, one last thing, id like to share this track from ali farka toure.i cant stop listening to him

      welcome to the blog mbuya. If you are looking for good, solidly researched, quick reads you should check out Southend Press. They specialize in feminist texts with decolonized praxis at their base, they publish Shiva. You can also check out the extensive list of “historical” readings from the tab at the top of the blog “Historical Reading Lists” put together through a multi-blog meme. If you like Shiva, I would think you’d also like Joanna Kadi, Winona LaDuke, and/or Aurora Levins Morales all published at South End.

    Hey – do you have any plans to be in Brazil (or near it) this summer? Why I ask: a conference. It’s just an idea at this point but if you’re going to be in the area, it could be worth talking about. Best – Z, AKA

      I don’t think so. So far I’m scheduled for a conference in the English Speaking Caribbean this summer but keep me in the loop on Brazil. Pov U has no funding for such things, but you know, where there is a will there is often a way. :)

    Dear Prof S: (profess)

    It’s not that we WANT the book, well – sure – we ALL battle want, no? It’s that we NEED the book. You see, we’re transitioning from a not-so-small arts advisory in DC to an arts advisory/design studio with a distinct focus on women’s self-esteem, body identity issues, and self-image issues. We promote all of this through art, and we’re sort of rambling about looking at thousands of websites, reading everything we can get our hands on (did I mention I’m a one woman shop). Anywhoo, thank you for the gracious offer – please do throw our name in the hat for this or any future giveaways.

      welcome to the blog. I have put your name in the running. :D Your organization looks like a great one!

      The contest is going on here and thru Twitter and some folks are asking to have their bids remain anonymous, so when all the names are in I will let you know!

    Hi patricia,
    I am interested in your workshop schedule. My quilt group is planning a quilting event May 29, 2010. Would like to know your availability, contract info and if you would be interested. “Silhouettes of My People” could be a fun workshop.
    thanks

    Hi Prof,

    I’m going to feel pretty silly if I overlooked it, but I cannot find contact info for you and I’m hoping that is because you prefer to decide who you will interact with outside of this blog.

    Would you please write me at . . . I’d like to ask you something.

    Thank you for coming by Color Online. I don’t know how I hadn’t found my way here before, but I’m so glad I’m here now. I admire and respect what you do here. So much to learn and appreciate.

    Best,
    S

    OK. I missed your Twitter on the women in DC who got attacked outside the clinic because I’m not following you on Twitter. Doh.

    After I figured that out, I spent 10 minutes surfing your blog and searching you on Twitter. Can’t find you. Is it because it’s a secret? Or because I just haven’t metabolized my second cup of coffee yet?

    I’m VSWoodPsyD on Twitter and would appreciate being able to follow you there, too.

    Thanks.

    Now I’m off to try that great ‘who I am’ thing.

    Hi Prof – Love the concept of a “say post” – very smart since I want to do just that – and there really wasn’t a corresponding post! Also, I am helping the women of SheGroup, a Miami group of lesbians, identify VOICES of women and urge them to enter a coming out story contest @ http://www.shedate.com. We’d love to have you participate – you have a strong narrative style and would be an awesome contribution to the site. Think about it:) Rock on … -Syd

    This is going to sound weird, but I received a ThinkGeek catalog in the post today and I thought of you. They have a Doctor Who Tardis USB Hub (with flashing light and sound! – item 9223) and a Dr. Who Sonic Screwdriver (Item 8cff)! How cool is that? I swear, I don’t work for them… I might just have to buy from them though. Mmmmm… Tardis. Feel free to exterminate this!

    Just wanted to give you a shout and let you know that my old blog (to which you have kindly linked) is now merely for archive purposes (it reverted to its old name). Check out the new location and name – it’s got the same vibe, just different digs. Peace.
