"Paul, WE may not effect any change in the larger patterns of inequity but
WE certainly can and do have bearing on the inequitable relations in our
immediate surround. That's the message that I would prefer to take, as a
reminder, from Gary's posting."
What I was talking about, Judith, were the unintended results of our
actions. Sometimes you point in one direction in your immediate
surroundings but it's going the other direction by the time it hits the
street. There's more than a little backlash out there today and its runs
deep throughout the land. If you crank up the volume, thinking you'll get
your message through, sometimes all you do is produce the horrible screech
of feedback.
