I went over and visited the beginning of take back the night, but my foot hurt too much to stay and I needed to get to the caf before they stopped feeding me so I left. The luminaries are really pretty from my room though. It's kind of nice to think that so many people feed the way I do about how bad it is to have to have a buddy every time you walk anywhere at night. I got a couple feminist pins while I was there. One's just a big F, but I'll share the card with you because I thought it really stood for something.
The F Word
I display this button
to raise awareness.
oppose oppression based on gender, race,
sexual orientation, ethnicity, age, religion,
ability, and socioeconomic status.
I take action to support equality and prevent silence.
I am true to myself.
I am feminist.
Well, they finally left for their march. They chant something I can't hear, but every person has a candel, and because it's dark out, it's more like a march of tiny little lights than of people. The visual is amazing. I wish I had a video camera.
