Writing a column or feminist blog Paradigm Shift

It always causes a pang of sadness and anger that women are still fighting the same battles that I thought we had won already.
Why are women still being forced to fight for control of our own bodies, reproductive rights, equal pay for equivalent work and other gender related issues.
In my opinion, these rights are so obvious, there should be no room for argument.
Now I am writing for a feminist blog based in NYC, you can read my first post here.
I wrote about the Femen protests as the political protest actions of young women, including Pussy Riot, have started to gain media attention.
I plan to write regularly in support of gender related issues.
International Womens’ Day inspired me to write a song.

Play the Moment will be performing as part of the Vancouver Maker Faire June 1-2 at the PNE.
This is a rare opportunity to experience a network music performance with a live band member in attendance.
I will be playing computer and singing on-site and I will be available to answer questions about our show and my other projects.
In addition to the confirmed Play the Moment performance, I am working on also presenting Angels Among Us, an interactive installation featuring my collaboration with visual artist Joanna Gabler as Zest Continuum.
More information on exact dates and times will be announced soon.

#DIVEST It is almost too late to keep your money. Look at major #Fossilfuel companies investing in #renewable #energy.
“This study adds to the growing evidence that we can and must rapidly shift away from dirty fossil fuels to a society powered by wind and solar. Reducing dependence on fossil fuels saves customers money and protects the planet.” In a true democracy, renewable energy would be made easily available to consumers as the majority choice, as opposed to increasing fossil fuel infrastructure as on industry's choice.
