Post One Nation Working Together

Thanks to the Transit Workers Union local Woodside bus, I was in Washington DC Saturday to stand up for peace and justice, jobs and education: the change we voted for, part of the One Nation Working Together Rally 10-2-10. Mine are simple photos -- we were back pretty far. Loved being there none-the-less but photos were "from a distance" but prove I was there. I went looking through others Flickr photos, playing their slide shows, picking favorites. You can peruse at your leisure and pretend you were with Molly Charboneau, her friend Patty and me.

UPDATE: Some on Democratic Underground

Looks like the corporate media is ignoring it -- not enough tea was served. Pity. Richard Trumka and Harry Belafonte were terrific speakers. Wish I could have heard more of the speeches but hopefully will catch more at the FreeSpeechTV.org archives, thanks to Laura Flanders and Thom Hartmann and their efforts at documenting the rally.

Post rally and a grueling DC metro mess, I am relaxing/recovering -- but have to do a couple of loads at my local laundromat, if the weather holds out.

Peace hugs,

Supporting the Writers' Strike

Politics is in the news but for peace and justice sake we must not forget the importance of settling the writers' strike. Isn't the drivel on TV enough to goad you to act? I just wrote Peter Chernin (FOX's CEO), thanks to a link at the UnitedHollywood blog. Visit the link to learn more about composing YOUR letter to make a positive difference. (Personalize their template.) And visit the blog regularly for continued updates and actions, as well as the Writers Guild. While we want a full settlement of the strike, let's encourage independent agreements like Dave Letterman signed for his Worldwide Pants company.

Thanks much -- and

Peace hugs,
Kate Anne
