This piece on the Pink Sari is excellent. Your words are well chosen and I think your intended meaning is in the words. Well written. Don't stop thinking, writing, speaking and educating. This piece should also be published to other audiences. You continue to raise my consciousness--up above what I thought was pretty high in the 60s 70s and 80s. We're never too old to learn.

I am disappointed for you in the lack of respectful dialogue. I can only hope that there was a generation gap involved and that each generation becomes more progressive and forward-thinking but perhaps that too is being far too idealistic. This is a beautifully articulate and mindful posting, you should attempt to publish it. If you give me permission, I would also like to post it on my blog, it can certainly serve to educate and remind others of the pointlessness of stereotypes.C.https://www.blogger.com/profile/06718970528564075858noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2981729242791132872.post-41405449394452792502009-09-28T10:03:09.508-07:002009-09-28T10:03:09.508-07:00Thanks for your comments guys!

I found the reactions of many in the room baffling. The sad and ironic thing is that we had come together as a group to celebrate an anthology written by diverse and international voices. I, too, hope to process this as a learning experience.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07688890748604183828noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2981729242791132872.post-41690720993375574512009-09-26T22:56:45.333-07:002009-09-26T22:56:45.333-07:00You should read a book called 'Ten Books that ...You should read a book called 'Ten Books that Screwed up the World (and five more that didn't help)". I saw it in the bookstore the other day. It was so vitriolic I made an immediate commitment to read every single book on the list.
