My 2.5 year old dd and I go to the same coffee shop several mornings a week on the way to school. Today there was a mom (who I've seen before) there with her son who looks to be about 4 years old. I haven't really talked to this mom beyond the early morning we-both-have-a-kid nicities, but I know something about her from reading the stickers on the back of her car.  

1. She is a vegan. She believes that eating animals is cruel.

2. She's a democrat.

3. She's Green

4. She wants to Coexist

All this, of course, is cool by me, until someone ruined my coffee...

I was surprised to learn today that a yahoo group has been started in support of Brooke Ryan.  As a result, there are 14 nurse-ins being planned across the country on September 8:  http://health. groups.yahoo. com/group/ bwb_lactivist/.  I'm glad that in 2007 women take up for themselves and oneanother.  My original post about the incident that Brooke encountered at a local Applebee's can be read after the flip.
