Lafayette, CA Event: Empowering Women & Girls on May 24, Veteran's Memorial Hall

By
An email was sent to me announcing a very important event for the evening of May 24th:

Unfinished Business: Empowering Women & Girls on May 24, at the Veterans Memorial Hall in Lafayette at 3780 Mt. Diablo Blvd, from 7 PM to 9 PM.  RSVP at UnfinishedBusinessRSVP@gmail.com

Featuring Gina Otto (photo), bestselling author or Cassandra's Angel. Cassandra's Angel is about the stories we've been given by the people in our lives about who they think they should be....and dropping those stories to become who you were meant to be. The evening will be dedicated to discussing empowerment among women and girls, focusing on a process of mentorship and self expression as told in the book, to achieve personal growth and self esteem.

This program is open to all girls and women, but is also a really great Mother/Daughter event! Our mistress of ceremonies will be actress Nicole Ari Parker, (http://www.nicoleariparkeronline.com/) who in addition to her work on screen, has received the 2010 "Maverick Award" Women Empowering Women, and the 2010 "Renaissance Woman of the Year Award" from Collective Renaissance.

Nicole is the founder of Sophie's Voice Foundation, a 501c3 dedicated to research, education and eradicating Spinda Bifida, a preventable birth defect.

This will be an inspiring evening that will catalyze the attendees to become young girls and women of consequence.

The event is FREE and it would be a shame to have an empty seat in the house. Please share this with your friends, family and networks. Thank you for helping get the word out.
Please, take time to attend this very worthwhile event!

Oakland Mayor's Race: LWV Forum Draws Oakland's Older Folks

By
Oakland Mayor's Race Forum first take. (Which means, there's going to be more of these posts on last night, because a lot was happening.) This just in: The Oakland Tribune's out of touch with Oakland. A number of attendees of the 450 estimated said they learned of the Oakland League Of Women Voters via "the newspaper." All of the people who made that statement were over 50 years old. Still, the forum, which attracted every candidate except Dr. Terrance Candell, was a success. The auditorium at 300 Lakeside Drive seats 380 people, so if you do the math, it was about 70 over capacity. The crowd was a happy mix of supporters of candidates and long-time observers of the Oakland political scene. The one complaint they had was there wasn't enough time to hear what the candidates were about. That wasn't because there were too many candidates, but due to the format. Either Oakland Tribune Editor Martin Reynolds or the League of Women Voter
