YAY! I just got elected to
the board of the Equal Justice Coalition here in Topeka. I am so excited to be a part of this group. I just wanted to share. I will let you all know when things come up, hopefully there will be a lot of moving and shaking going on. Any ideas, let me know.

5. Good luck
I just saw a bumper sticker tonight that read something to the effect of...

"Bigotry is alive and well in Kansas"

I sincerely hope that statewide changes are afoot in the near future; 71% of the voting population as bigots is not good.

8. Thanks.
I think we only deal directly with Topeka but am hoping we can make contact with coalitions in other cities. I am too new to know exactly what their exact plans are but whatever, we can affect some part of this state anyway.

7. Good luck
it's a tough job standing up for fair and impartial treatment, good luck to you, you are doing a very valuable thing, they are too many willing to trash the legal system to serve their own political agenda.

Topeka is better for your involvement.

10. Good going
From everything you have posted (that I have read) you seem like a great choice. I congratulate you on being in a position where you can help change the hearts and minds of people in Topeka.

:applause: :woohoo: :applause: :woohoo: :applause: :woohoo: :applause:


I don't envy where you are doing it but anything I can ever do to help just let me know. My car is fixed and I am now able to travel out of town. I can also help spread the word in Lawrence.
