A Progressive Warrior Queen-Isn't That an Oxymoron?


In case you don't know the story of Boadicea (Boudicca), in a nutshell it goes like this.

Boadicea's tribe, the Iceni, lived peacefully as a client tribe under Roman rule. After her husband's death corrupt Roman officials reneged on the agreement that left the Iceni in peace. When Boadicea, still the leader of her tribe, went to protest this, she was flogged and her daughters were raped before her eyes.

She returned to her tribe and raised a rebellion against the Romans that was short lived, brutal, and ended in her death.

Understand, I'm not looking to raze Colchester, or leave piles of bodies behind me. However, the Radical Right Religionists and the Corporate sponsors of the Chattel Society have declared war on us who are "others".

 
I say we fight back.  Right now, I'm fighting back primarily at Texas Kaos. Please come join me.

Meet the New Guard

posted Saturday, 7 June 2008

The New Guard

 "We didn't have that feeling of belonging till about 2-3 days ago." 

 "Not an ownership of success, but an ownership of the pursuit."

 That's the power of the Obama campaign-what it inspires us to do for ourselves.

 I'm sorry it took this long.  Let's not wait a moment longer in the pursuit.
