Hi, Ron-I wanted to let you know that I don’t have a Linked In account. I’m retired so it didn’t really fit. However, I do manage the listserv for the Women’s International League for Peace and Freedom and we would like to know about projects you work on that are part of the social justice movement. My email is jenisep@gmail.com Please feel free to email me. Thanks.
