quench zine: I admit it, I still wanna quench
http://quenchzine.blogspot.com/2009/03/i-admit-it-i-still-wanna-quench.html
March 20, 2009. I admit it, I still wanna quench. I have a question for you all. Do you still want to quench? Do you still want to read quench? If you're a writer, do you still want to write for quench? I've been looking for some more interactive itching of my queer antiracist, well basically anti- bad things and pro-good things (like "people should be allowed to choose their own identities") itch, and quench was always one of those best places to scratch it. What do others think? Yes, yes, yes; still in...

quench zine: 1 in 10 Americans on Food Stamps
http://quenchzine.blogspot.com/2009/04/1-in-10-americans-on-food-stamps.html
April 02, 2009. 1 in 10 Americans on Food Stamps. What's going on when taxpayers have bought companies that are paying their top employees millions and one in ten Americans are on food stamps. I understand that the economy is in the toilet, but the country is bringing in enough money that everyone should at least be have enough income to eat. I've been reading up on a few interesting ways local companies have tried to avoid layoffs like this one. Thursday, 02 April, 2009. Monday, 06 April, 2009. But stil...

quench zine: Confetti: Matthew Shepard and James Byrd, Jr. Prevention Act
http://quenchzine.blogspot.com/2009/10/confetti-matthew-shepard-and-james-byrd.html
October 31, 2009. Confetti: Matthew Shepard and James Byrd, Jr. Prevention Act. So I've clearly been under a rock, because I somehow missed the fact that the federal Hate Crimes Prevention Act has been expanded. In Obama's words, because "we must stand against crimes that are meant not only to break bones, but to break spirits — not only to inflict harm, but to instill fear.". This is the first federal law explicitly protecting transpeople! Sunday, 01 November, 2009. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

quench zine: Introduction
http://quenchzine.blogspot.com/2009/08/introduction.html
August 05, 2009. I'm writing this first post to introduce myself as - dare I say it? A new quenchista. I also have a nascent personal blog. But am very excited to be joining quench, blog re:all things near and dear to me. I am a current Harvard senior, although perhaps taking time off in the fall (! Before finishing up my concentration in the Studies of Women, Gender, and Sexuality. Mostly the latter two). This summer, I'm working at a fabulous, tiny organization. Tuesday, 25 August, 2009.

quench zine: Trans Activists in Massachusetts have their acts together
http://quenchzine.blogspot.com/2009/07/trans-activists-in-massachusetts-have.html
July 15, 2009. Trans Activists in Massachusetts have their acts together. Yesterday was the judiciary committee hearing for H. 1728, the transgender anti-discrimination and hate crimes bill that was called H. 1722 last legislative session. Is some queer press about it. I'm going to write this post assuming you've read or heard a little about it, and just give my additional impressions. If you don't know anything about it, read the article I just linked to and this primer. Our community turned out in larg...

Scientists working beyond the bench. Can a Katze “situation” happen to you? If bullying is tolerated, yes. July 2, 2016. Can a Katze situation happen to you? Of course it can. The story of Michael Katze, of the Department of Microbiology at the University of Washington (UW), Seattle, is the latest in this year’s series of nasty academic sexual harassment and bystander inaction tales. Buzzfeed. Broke the story with copies of texts and other lurid details and Geekwire. His conduct was inappropriate and not...

quench zine: What can we do to encourage giving in our communities?
http://quenchzine.blogspot.com/2009/05/what-can-we-do-to-encourage-giving-in.html
May 31, 2009. What can we do to encourage giving in our communities? In my community, a common way that people who have more than what they end encourage each other to redistribute their wealth is through house parties thrown to benefit local community organizations. I've heard of other folks forming giving circles. We also help by participating in a culture where used goods are trendy. But is all that money "saved" going to do good things? Among my close friends (my chosen family), we help each other ou...
