[Wamvan] CKNW/CFOX/Global Hosts Sexism Re: Women in Politics

Agreed! For the two cases we talked about and for future ones, we can also
use our website as a tool to get the message out to a broader audience.

http://www.womenactionmedia.org/chapters/vancouver/

If you have any ideas of things to post on our section of the WAM! website
or if you would like to write a guest post, let me, Natalie or Jarrah know.

Also, please get in touch with things you think we should share on our
Facebook and Twitter accounts. If it's a more complicated issue, we welcome
pre-drafted messages so it'd be easier for us to post quickly.

You can reach us at the personal email addresses we use on the listserv or
at wamvancouver at gmail.com.
