Dateline:06/05/06 Portland, Or.USA. First blog, allot to talk about today as everyday. I have just lost my older sister, Dee Carney who taught me long ago if you are a participant in society you have an obligation to speak out about injustice in our world. This Blog is dedicated to her memory and I hope in some small way to bring about positive change in the world in which we all live.I will try to offer information in a easily readable format. I will provide links to all cited materials whenever possible. Topics will be varied and I will try to find the context,subtext and underlying connections where I see them. I believe in dialog and criticism so please feel free to do both with vigor.
