The Personal is Political

About Me

I am dedicated to having an opinion and being heard! There are too many false avenues for expression that are corporately monitored and otherwise controlled. The Internet seems like a great thing for human rights. And the best part is . . . you don't need a master's degree to get published! I'm fully aware that I sort of "missed the boat" in the world of blogs. I am only now discovering how powerful they can be. Maybe an increased sense of feeling silenced by various forces (aka playing the job market/capitalist/corporate bitch game) made me realize how important it is to be able to think for myself. I also express myself through music, but it's so much easier to write. I can be too braindead and tired to hold a bass or a guitar but I can never sleep without clearing my head of political and personal rants through writing. I hope others will be able to express themselves on this blog or on blogs of their own. I say: Get writing....it's cheaper than getting a PhD! (And the food is better....)
