I just read your latest entry on the DC ...Hi lori! <BR/> <BR/>I just read your latest entry on the DC blog from Indiana...I really liked it, and it meant a lot to me. Haveing been involved with the Code Pink in CA, and being lucky enough to travel to DC, I have seen the affectiveness of well organized actions. Now, I am back in the Midwest ( I grew up in IN and went to IU), andI have become a local coordinator. Let me tell you, it has been difficult. There have been several meetings where it is just me and 1 other person, or just me and my boyfriend at an action. There are so many times I just want to give up and do my own activism...go to DC when I want--participate in something bigger. Why do I bother with people who won't even take time to show up?? Well, your article that I read this morning is just what I needed. People here need to know that they can make a differance and being a part of something bigger might be in your own backyard!! I am going to keep working on a local level to get people involved in Code Pink actions, and also letting them know how awesome Code Pink is on a national level. They too can go to DC!!!<BR/><BR/>Thank you for your inspiration when I really needed some....<BR/><BR/>Code Pink louisvilleJodyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01301756579341023408noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4927240156474434943.post-52996027148005961172007-05-30T12:54:00.000-05:002007-05-30T12:54:00.000-05:00Thank you Lori!
