It Isn't Nice to Block the Buses. Last Friday, the litigation group at the law firm I work for held its annual bash at a restaurant in the Marina.

Another Dayenu: November 2008
http://anotherdayenu.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html
Enough. Ya Basta. Khalas. Dayenu. Tuesday, November 18, 2008. Cynical idealism or cautious optimism? I have often described myself as a cynical idealist. From Al Jazeera, I learned a new phrase that I just might prefer: "cautious optimist." I like it. And I think it sums up exactly what myself and others in my life are feeling about Obama. We're optimistic, even hopeful, but.I mean it's still. The government, it's still. The United States, this certainly. Links to this post. Sunday, November 16, 2008.

Enough. Ya Basta. Khalas. Dayenu. Thursday, September 03, 2009. The revolution will not be quanitified. Quick update, 'cause I don't remember if I mentioned this on this blog or not. I'm in grad school now.I started a week ago. Now, on to what I actually wanted to say. I don’t think that’s true. Sure, everyone loves to win.but losing a supposedly “winnable” struggle ALSO happens and that can be really de-mobilizing. Even if we do win, then what? The NPIC is trying to force our movements into a corporate ...

Since i left work, i have been unravelling the layers of this story one of my students told me today, while waiting for her parents to pick her up:.

Enough. Ya Basta. Khalas. Dayenu. Tuesday, December 01, 2009. Health and accountability.some thoughts. Here I am, sitting in my old bedroom in my parents’ house (a privilege for sure), thinking about “accountability.” Why? I guess because lately, my health has made accountability difficult, even when it comes to the struggles that I see as the driving force in my life (I know, I know, that sounds extreme. but it's accurate). Really difficult to understand.). Adrienne Rich wrote an essay “Split at t...
