Hello good people. This is my beginning into the world of blogging, a challenge a good friend urged me to undertake. Given that today is the birthday of our nation, I'd like to fulfill my patriotic duty by taking a moment to remember all the service women and men who have lost their lives in our current war in Iraq...[moment....]
Enjoy this 4th of July, and bookmark this page for further words and images from one Nuyorican in the 'burbs...
Peace.
Words and images from a queer Nuyorican thinking and mothering in the 'burbs of South Jersey.
Welcome readers
I'm a Latina Lesbi-Mom living as, learning about, and writing about queers, people of color, women, and raising children, sometimes as separate entities and most others about the intermingling of it all. Welcome.
