In Remembering Judy Freespirit. Who comes to mind when we think of founders of important human rights movements? Martin Luther King Jr? When I think of the fat rights movement, Judy Freespirit is the founding foremother. Judy was a member of the Fat Underground, the earliest radical movement to question the dieting industry and the oppression of fat people. She also founded Fat Lip Readers Theatre. She wrote the. She continued to be part of fat, feminist, and disability rights groups throughout her life.

The Cheryl B Fund at Astrea →. What an amazing afternoon…. July 25, 2011. That was one helluva afternoon, wasn’t it? For context reminder, a little excerpt from Cheryl’s memoir:. While many of my peers frolicked on the Jersey Shore in beaded half-shirts, I spent much of my teen years in my room listening to Pink Floyd albums on cassette, rereading Sylvia Plath and Anne Sexton and filling sheets of loose leaf with stream of consciousness prose. In my make believe multi- disciplinary art world. We’ll...

In Remembering Judy Freespirit. Letter to Judy, August 2010. I am currently transcribing the interview I did with her and will publish it on my blog soon. It’s been a couple of months since I saw you in San Francisco, and you may have forgotten me. I’m the British researcher-activist that Esther Rothblum brought to meet you in June. We had lunch together, you showed us around the Jewish Home, and then I interviewed you about fat activism and the Fat Underground in the art room. 1 Fat and Proud. That̵...

What would Grandma say? | Off Trajectory

Life outside the Norm. Welcome 20…OOF. Let’s Try That Again. What would Grandma say? January 25, 2013. Another week, another round of trying to get healthy. I thought I had done well trying to ease myself back in. After a round of the flu. But two nights of dance class and a night out drinking with the girls were fun … but perhaps overly ambitious. I spent last weekend in bed again, and have been pretty non-functional again this week. The benefits of being sick:. 8220;Put some goddam socks on! Do you wan...

Making Waves Fat Women's Swim. Carpooling to the swim? Community Forum: Weight Limit. July 12, 2012. For many years, perhaps since the beginning, Making Waves has been restricted to fat women who weigh over 200 pounds. Do we still agree that this policy serves us? Do we as a group want to keep it or change it? If we want to change it, what would we do instead? Please be civil in your comments, and mention your relationship to Making Waves so we can best understand the perspectives being offered. I’...

Yours Truly, Naima. An Exercise in Radical Earnestness. I want to like Patti Smith. Really I do. My Dearest 10 Readers,. I’m not going to make any grand promises to myself or anyone else about my new-found commitment to the craft of pithy web presence. I will, however, attempt, in earnest, to share some of what’s been running through my head over the last 14 months or so. And so very much rain. Rain, rain rain. Ugh. I think someone told me that Kurt Cobain wrote that last album up the street. That, my de...

Practicing generosity at the Oakland General Strike. One of the many things I love about the Occupy movement (also known as the Decolonize.

Then we all took off with the big march down Broadway. A few blocks into the march, our affinity group split off from the march and headed for the large branch of Chase Bank. Or keep it for yourself?
