Stregoneria: July 2006
http://lorraine-berry.blogspot.com/2006_07_01_archive.html
They will see us waving from such great heights. 'Come down now,' they'll say. But everything looks perfect from far away. 'Come down now,' but we'll stay.". Tuesday, July 25, 2006. Fireweed and Dead Children. It is my own narcissism that tries to claim that the suffering all around me, that is around me but is not touching me, can justify my own helplessness and rage of the past, god, I don't even know how long anymore. I have always been frightened of fundamentalism. When one decides that one set o...

They will see us waving from such great heights. 'Come down now,' they'll say. But everything looks perfect from far away. 'Come down now,' but we'll stay.". Monday, August 07, 2006. What It's Like For a Girl. To a girl, we voted down the ERA in our classroom. And to a boy, they voted for it. 1972 was also the year SCOTUS rendered a decision in Roe. I learned a new language: a language of fear. Fear of the things that could be done to me because I was a woman. I was told to "hush." I was told...I used co...

An informal place to hang out and talk about gender. 'Kos we don't have a sense of humour. Wednesday, July 06, 2005. Libraries were this girl's best friends. An initiative will be launched today to nudge policymakers away from seeing successful book lending and the encouragement of reading as the prime goals of Britain's public library service. Instead the emphasis should shift to whether libraries help governments promote their wider health, educational and social objectives. The answer to rejuvenating ...

They will see us waving from such great heights. 'Come down now,' they'll say. But everything looks perfect from far away. 'Come down now,' but we'll stay.". Tuesday, June 27, 2006. There once was a junkie named Rush. Who had trouble exploring the bush. So he smuggled some pills. That would jack up his thrills. And wound up with a glove up his tush. Privacy, it seems, only applies. To those who are hired as spies. For the average bloke. Secrecy’s naught but a joke. So says the president who lies. And so,...

http://lorraine-berry.blogspot.com/2007/01/ourselves.html
They will see us waving from such great heights. 'Come down now,' they'll say. But everything looks perfect from far away. 'Come down now,' but we'll stay.". Friday, January 19, 2007. Addressed a crowd that had gathered on November 4, 2006. November 4 is the date that Yitzhak Rabin was assassinated. It is important to note, if you read through the entire speech (and please, please. Do so), that Prime Minister Ehud Olmert was in the crowd. How much of our refusal to deal with our own racism, with poverty,...

They will see us waving from such great heights. 'Come down now,' they'll say. But everything looks perfect from far away. 'Come down now,' but we'll stay.". Monday, February 12, 2007. In Fascist Spain, in 1944, Franco's forces had been triumphant, but there was still opposition in the countryside. It is against this background that the splendid movie, Pan's Labyrinth. Combines many of the tropes from the ancient myths. The main character, Ofelia, is a 12-year old girl who travels with her pregnant m...
