WHAT IS THIS?

Floating down the river of time. Hoping to use what I've seen upriver (in my younger days, in history I've investigated) to help me observe the new terrain the river runs through. Knowing that I can't see where the river may wander, but I can dream.

Let us explore together.

About Me

My photo
janinsanfran
I'm a progressive political activist who runs trails and climbs mountains whenever any are available. I've had the privilege to work for justice in Central America (Nicaragua and El Salvador), in South Africa, in the fields of California with the United Farmworkers Union, and in the cities and schools of my own country. I'm a Christian of the Episcopalian flavor; we think and argue a lot. For work, I've done a bit of it all: run an old fashioned switch-board; remodeled buildings and poured concrete; edited and published periodicals, reports and books; and organized for electoral campaigns. Will work for justice.
