Redistricting

I'm sorry. I do not understand this whole redistricting thing. Why aren't districts simply drawn along natural geographic lines and left like that. That way, the census wouldn't change the…Continue

Jennifer Warren replied to Smiley and West's discussion Teacher Suspended"So what do you suggest doing...having a law that takes babies away from gang member parents to be raised by the state? That's hardly a viable solution. The only thing left that I can think of is to make it so that all convicted…"

Jennifer Warren replied to Smiley and West's discussion Hot Stuff: Occupy Wall Street"It makes little difference.
As for the torture and beatings... I defy you to think about irony as you are being subjected to them.

Trust me on this, my friends... there comes a point where the amount of money one

Jennifer Warren replied to Smiley and West's discussion Hot Stuff: Occupy Wall Street"The problem is that we have a system that doesn't work. Pure capitalism created a system of three classes : Rich, Middle Class, and Poor -- and then, just as in the days of medieval europe, the rich waged war on everyone else... so…"

Jennifer Warren commented on Mark Wells's blog post The Planet of the Apes; Movie Fantasy or a Dose of Reality??"The man who created the entire "world" in which these stories took place said, quite frankly, that he wanted to place a member of the so-called "privileged" class...that is, someone used to being treated with great respect...into…"
Jennifer Warren replied to Smiley and West's discussion Hot Stuff: Occupy Wall Street"To be frankly honest, I've not seen any disobedience. What I've seen is gestapo style tactics being employed in an attempt to silence people whose only "crime" is exercising their first amendment right to freedom of speech.…"
Jennifer Warren replied to Smiley and West's discussion Hot Stuff: Taxing the Rich"I hate to be the one to break the news to you, but this has already happened. Why do you think that there is a jobs crisis? Its because there aren't enough manufacturing jobs left in this country. All manufacturing has moved…"
Jennifer Warren replied to Smiley and West's discussion Teacher Suspended"I've seen some of the so-called text books that are being used. According to them,

Ideas for Change
Posted on April 30, 2011 at 11:11pm 3 Comments 0 Likes
Perhaps the color of my skin means that my ideas for change should not be considered, but I feel that a far greater crime would be that I remain silent.
True, this idea may seem too small to make any real difference...and maybe it has been said before. And yes, I am quite certain that others have better ideas than I could ever come up with.
That said, here is my idea : A website.
What is needed is a website where information about…

Thanks for sharing your thoughts regarding The New Jim Crow! You made several points that were (in my opinion) on target, valid and significant! Abiding Peace & Hope for Change! Sistah Friend Emm Dee

- Jennifer:
Several folk have responded to your comments regarding white supremacy- I hope you will take the time to review the postings and denote that we or at least I am not making an effort or intent to marginalize anyone's grief--thus, the term Sistah Friend. Also, I am from the South and I have several friends who are both GLBT and pagan and Black/African American~ Not sure where in the South your friend/cousin resides but in my South no one really cares about such things-- and if they don't like it--it remains their problem.

I thought you were smart and strong-headed enough not to just quit at the slightest semblance of a wall. If you are really what I thought you were, then, when you get to read this, you must return at once ... :)
Sincerely,
Yomi
