Why We Are Here (Part VI)
This week’s Why We Are Here is a special one. It is dedicated to all of the caring fathers out there in the world. Equality moves both ways, and we need to remember that when walking and working with our male counterparts in humanity’s symphony. There are plenty of wonderful courageous men who work hard for equality right alongside the womenfolk and who practice doing the right thing. At the same time, there are many who have dedicated themselves to learning how to do the right thing, in spite of thousands of years of cultural influence. It is because of the education and other programs backed by Equality Now (and other worthy institutions) that these seekers of truth and equality have the chance to change the imbalance.… Read more…

The Cause – “We’re just happy to be doin’ good works”
“All I ask is this: Do something. Try something. Speaking out, showing up, writing a letter, a check, a strongly worded e-mail. Pick a cause – there are few unworthy ones. And nudge yourself past the brink of tacit support to action. Once a month, once a year, or just once.” – Joss Whedon
Why We Are Here…
In the past few weeks, we’ve shared some stories about the cold, cruel and unbalanced world around us and the need to keep the signal going. But what happens when you do speak out? Do things change? The answer is yes – they do. Some change faster than others but action and speaking out do make a difference.
That’s why the latest Why We Are Here feature is about the positive side of working to make the world a better and more equal place.… Read more…
Hot Off the Presses!
What is shinier than the concept of awesome CSTS t-shirts? Why the real deal of course!!!
Our own Tara, went to the printers yesterday to chat with Scott Mensing of Koala-T and check on the shirts. While she was there, she took these cool pictures to show me because she was so excited!
Because I’m excited too, we’ve decided to share the excitement with EVERYONE!
