why are you reading this?



Sophie made a beautiful slip of the tongue on Saturday that set me thinking; she said, 'We're going to build up a campaign on the issues that care for us'.



Where would we be, as individuals, without the issues we care deeply about?



Why do we spend our sunny Saturdays in a large room in Euston?



How does this relate to empowerment, and the group/individuals issues that Zaria's playing with below?

Hi Kathryn,

beautiful slip of the tongue indeed. The issues that care for us.

A point about empowerment, though. I don't know if I've misunderstood this, but I feel quite empowered enough already. I don't think my personal empowerment is an issue or a problem in any of the issues we stuck on our washing line last week. If anything it is a bit too much empowerment of sections of society which has caused and continue to exacerbate certain societal problems, such as environmental problems.

In terms of being empowered as a protester, does that empowerment come from being a part of successful groups? such at the TTT crew?

any ideas?
Zaria.
baci a tutti,x
