Creating Change, Oakland 2005

We just got back from Creating Change. Both Lisa and I were there this year - she was there for the entire week, and I was there for the last two days of the conference. It was held in Oakland and there were a ton of people. We got to connect with some folks (if you're out there and reading this - it was great to see you) and hand out a ton of postcards. We also got to speak to some people about submitting pieces to the website. Love it!

Highlights included the POC and sexuality workshop - talk about living out a busted binary - that was awesome. We touched upon a ton of stuff including: gender identity, religion, polyamory, incest, mixed race identity, class, lesbian feminism, s&m and much, much more. Wow. Other highlights included Urvashi Vaid's call to the movement. Maybe one day we can get a copy of her statements up here.

And, there are other highlights which we will touch upon later. Peace.
