[WCUSP] [Wisewomen] Program update due this week!

[yvonne simmons]

Dear All, Odile I did get your mail and gave
Resistance Art in Toronto the remaining funds I had
for the  Palestinian  calenders. Happy and busy.
Yesterday at ,Lomita Allegria, Happy  Place, the land
we are  on at the garbage dump, Las Lomas, with the
kids we were organizing street theatre and dance for
the 31st when we shall take to the streets  (dusty 
paths) to demand water as a human right. They have no
running cleanwater in Las Lomas. It fits in with the
WILPF water campaign. I am going again today, a two
hour trek on dormabile buses with crazy drivers. Take
care Yvonne
