Gaza and Gift exchange

Yesterday a bunch of us demonstrated and went into our “representative,” Wally Herger’s office to talk to his staff about Gaza. Working with Wally ® is pretty much a dead end but we continue to do it. Here Sue Hildebrand, the coordinator of the Chico Peace and Justice Center, is doing an interview with the local press. Apparently it was on the 5pm news but then wasn’t significant enough to make it onto the 11pm coverage…

Tonight the people at Riparia had our “Christmas” (white elephant) gift exchange and potluck. It’s good to be with people who understand your hopes and the things that are keeping your blood boiling. Especially when they are good cooks!
