I know I don't comment on your entries often, but reading your journal always makes me incredibly happy, gordonzola. I miss San Francisco terribly -- especially right now, in the midst of all this madness -- and it's so refreshing to hear what you're saying about what's going on there, even if what's going on is exhausting and hard.

I miss the sense of community and solidarity among activists that I have when I'm in SF. I know that the SF activist world is far from perfect (ha) but I felt like I had an activist community there, and here at Hampshire people (who, being college students, are often doing activism for the first time) get so wrapped in their own personal power trips they lose sight of why we're doing what we're doing. I've been frustrated with Hampshire activists beyond belief these past few months, and I've missed my SF cohorts a lot.

You remind of them, and you remind of why I do what I do. Thank you.
