Your video on You Tube rescued me from my draining search to find a voice and quell an insatiable desire to blog. I've wanted to incorporate social justice into blogs past, but now have decided to make it my driving force. I deleted all my former work and launched theglobalcitizen.typepad.com. One day and one post, but it's a start!
Thank You!
April Lena Rain
Great blog
