ArchivesRe: I was so touched...
in reply to a message by Phyllis
True Phyllis I can do more later with my children! I just wish there was something I could do now. But I cant give blood cause I am pregnant! And I have no extra money at the momment due to me moving and paying money to break my lease! But I plan to hopefully give some money once I get things back in order! Things are so crazy everywhere! I moved into my new apartment the day before the WTC thing! So everything was really overwhelming! But I may have to do more later!
Thanks!!

You have two working arms? Your child has two working arms? Use them. I heard about some "mischief" during Arab Fest here in Milwaukee and I wonder if it will continue at the Holiday Folk Fair here in Milwaukee (I volunteer there, so I kinda keep an eye/ear out for what gives).
I was listening to NPR broadcasts yesterday, and one of the segments was about an Afghani mosque in Flushing, NY. They were anxiously awaiting word about one of the members who worked at the World Trade Center, and, at the same time, trying to avoid being attacked by donkeys who call themselves real Americans.
I also reread a book about an all Japanese-American unit that fought during WWII, and I thought about those men who were forced out of their homes and marched over to a concentration camp just because their ancestors happened to come from the same country as the men who bombed Pearl Harbor. Are we going to do something like that to the Afghan people living in the United States? Or the "Arabs" (some of them aren't muslim or even from the Middle East)
I must stop before I send a fist through the monitor (I'm at school, so it's not mine that I would be destroying). Goddess knows I'm furious enough to do it.
