11 Apr 2011This past weekend I attended and presented at the 30th Annual Civil Liberties & Public Policy program (CLPP) Conference at Hampshire College in Amherst, Massachusetts. I am happy with the way Bianca held down the fort in my absence, making sure there was plenty of delicious, thought provoking content to keep this space alive.
While at CLPP, I co-presented a workshop and sat on a panel, both which were related to my work here and other places. The conference was a challenging space for me physically and emotionally, but I also learned and came away with much.
But, as often happens, this has caused me to be further behind in my work here and in other places. So accept my apologies as I regroup and set up some kick-culo posts full of information y corazon for all.
Abrazos,
Mala

Yours truly, Mala, will be co-facilitating a workshop with two inspirational mujeres, T.K. of the New Mythos Project and Rachel Caballero, a Community Caregiver de Tejas on self-care and healing as an act of resistance against colonialism at the CLPP Conference April 8-10th in Amherst.
One of the things I will be sharing is how redefining media and using media to speak truth can be a healing and developmental process for M/Others, Mamis and Community Caregivers of Color.
I hope that those who can come out. I have never been to this conference so I don’t know how the space is like and that always makes me nervous and defensive. I will be blogging & tweeting as the network there makes possible.
