Hello everyone,

Unfortunately, tonight's event is cancelled because both of our presenters
- Lee and Claudette - are sick today. We'll try to arrange another similar
event at another time.

*All dis-empowered people seek empowerment. Patriarchy defines empowerment
as the equivalent of power - over someone. This is the unifying philosophy
that binds racism and sexism together. Power over the natural world, power
over people, power over the seas, the air, time itself. Empowerment is the
personal quest for oneness with nature, oneness with people, the seas, the
skies, and time. The quest for power dis-empowers the very people who need
to be empowered in order to alter the course of our story. *
