"Black Lives Matter" and "White Silence = White
Violence" were two of the messages Glenda Hope, OWL's president, held when
she gathered people together on Tuesday, June 9, for an hour at San Jose and
Geneva. Patti Spaniak- Davidson, Chris Dillon, Barbara Fugate, and Jane
Merschen are other OWL members who participated, all honoring the 6' distance
and wearing masks. It was a spur-of-the-moment action.
Glenda reports, "The response we got from passing drivers
and pedestrians was very good." She also confided that the wind (from
nature and passing cars) was so strong that she feared it would lift her and
her sign up like Mary Poppins, but she remained grounded.
Stay tuned for our July 27th Zoom meeting, when racial justice
will be our topic with guest speakers Joani Marinoff and Debra Taube of SURJ
(Showing Up for Racial Justice).
