Happy New Year

Happy New Year everyone. May 2013 grow from the strongest and best of our movements in 2012 for world peace, social justice, economic equality and environmental sustainability. May we continue to listen to the drums.

All the best,
Ellen Woodsworth

“Human history is a history not only of cruelty, but also of compassion, sacrifice, courage, kindness. What we choose to emphasize in this complex history will determine our lives. If we see only the worst, it destroys our capacity to do something. If we remember those times and places – and there are so many – where people have behaved magnificently, this gives us the energy to act, and at least the possibility of sending this spinning top of a world in a different direction.”
– Howard Zinn

Renovictions and Moving

Dear Friends,

Thank you for all your support over the past few months of anxiety while I/we waited to find out what the new landlords of my home of the past thirty-three years would do. On June 18 we were given two months eviction notice for Aug 31. The landlords had known for months that we were going on holidays and despite repeated requests to let us know of their plans we received two days’ notice before leaving on our holidays.
