| Introduction | I'm female, I'm ethnic and I'm mad as hell about the injustices I see around me and quite frankly do not think we in the industrialized west are active enough in voicing and showing our opposition to what's wrong. I don't expect this blog to change anything, the power structures are too big and too entrenched in vested interests, but perhaps if some like-minded souls read these musings, maybe something will resonate and we all don't have to feel so isolated anymore. |
| Interests | Leftist politics, anarchism, race relations, dismantling power structures, 80's alternative music, underground film, foreign film, comparative literature, yoga, pugs, organic farming, pissing people off especially those who feel entitled to their comfort and white, blonde girls from suburbia with names like Kelly and Heather |
