We had an incredible day in Atlanta. We had an evening event at the amazing Charis Bookstore, organized by Kerrie, who tells us Charis is the oldest feminist bookstore in the south. it was an incredible vibe there - everyone in the room was someone doing spectacular work, from Deidre who works with SWAN (Service Women Action Network), to legendary former New Orleanian (and co-founder of Families and Friends of Louisiana's Incarcerated Children) Xochitl Bervera, to blogger (and Be Bold Be Brave Be Red initiator) Moya Bailey and Cara Page, National Director of the Committee on Women, populationa nd the Environment.
The event spawned some amazing conversation and connections, and some beautiful moments, such as when the woman in the front row confessed how closely she had been following the amazing work of Alexis Pauline Gumbs.
