yesterday, on international women’s day, i spoke at the pittsford rotary about my work and started by explaining the history and importance of women’s day. wasn’t sure how a group of white businessmen in suits was going to respond to my presentation but they were not afraid to engage and asked excellent questions. the talk was organized by my dear friend, and person-2-person partner, jeanne strazzabosco. later i met with two close friends, judy toyer (an attorney who grew up in alabama during jim crow and is committed to anti-racism work) and sarita arden (an artist who came to social justice very early on as a school girl), to talk about revolution. and of course, we all wore red.
