[Viva] PWN Meeting info

[Tami Starlight]

Hello all,

Perhaps there will be detailed notes on this auspicious occasion?

Only thing I get out of this share from Kath is women leaving in the middle
of the conversation.
Not surprised.
PWN has a lot to answer for and I highly doubt they will ever do so in a
meaningful way since this is how they have operated for far too damn long.

Which is why I would ever continue to be involved in ViVA. Something that
is intersectionally truly membership driven and not a top heavy ASO that
thinks about its membership and rarely follows its direction.

I have a voice and I have learned how to use it effectively over many
years.

Later top heavy PWN - where the vast majority of the money went to line the
pockets of non HIV+ women.
We can and must do better.

hiy hiy/thank you

tami

ps....give angela davis a listen to. <3
