YOUNG LESBIANS FROM NEWARK NEED OUR SUPPORT!

On August 18, 2006, seven young African American lesbians traveled to the West Village from their homes in Newark for a regular night out. When walking down the street, a male bystander assaulted them with sexist and homophobic comments. The women tried to defend themselves, and a fight broke out. Thus began the women’s nightmare for almost a year. Three of the women accepted plea offers. On June 14th, 2007 Venice Brown (19), Terrain Dandridge (20), Patreese Johnson (20), and Renata Hill (24) received sentences ranging from 3 ½ to 11 years in prison.

The women and their families now call on our communities for support. Their emotional and financial burdens have already been immense. These hardships will only continue as the women begin their prison terms and the process of appeal.

I Totally DISAGREE.., but I've taken the damn test 7 times and it keeps giving me the same damn answer out of 32 types:(

The Sudden Departure Random Brutal Love Master (RBLMf) Sweet. Dear. Loving. At Gate 18. Final call. You are The Sudden Departure. You've been in a lot of serious relationships. More than a few have ended ugly. Uglily. Whatever. Our guess is that you're a really fantastic girl who doesn't really know what she wants, and you've broken a few hearts as a result. You fall for people easily, and you enjoy the feeling of falling in love, but once you're there, either boredom or the old "grass is greener" syndrome sets in. The mind wanders, and with it goes the flesh. And then the toiletries. Your exact opposite: The Intern Deliberate Gentle Sex Dreamer We know you're not the classic "love 'em and leave 'em" type, at least not in a purely sexual sense. You have too many serious bonding tendencies for that. But even though you're theoretically looking to settle down, you don't settle long on one person. "Serial monogamist" is probably something you hear a lot. "Emotionally loose" is another way to put it. To the poor guys eating your dust and sniffing your panties, it doesn't really make much difference. Of course, it's not really your fault that people get hurt. You have every right to move on when you choose. ALWAYS AVOID: The Backrubber, The Gentleman CONSIDER: The Vapor Trail, someone just like you Link: The 32-Type Dating Test by OkCupid - Free Online Dating. My profile name: sunkissedfemme

Ok, ok.., I did NOT go snowboarding today. I was waaaaaaaay to tired to get up at 1am to go to the Upper East side to catch the bus to Okemo in Vt.

Visiting the family is tiring. Especially dealing with my Aunt C. I love her to death, but I hope I don't see her for another 10 yrs. Man, someone needs to direct a black Home for the Holidays. It should be me, but spending to much time with the fam gives me the hives! They're all so conservative., it stifles me.

So, my plan is to hit the slopes Friday!!!! I'm so excited, because I absolutely LOVE Snowboarding. So far, I've convinced 4 buddies to head to the slopes with me. Right now all my riding pals of boys, except a lovely woman named Venus.'-).

In January I'm going on a ski trip with 18 women to Big Boulder in the Poconos. joliestar organized this trip and I'm so stoked!!
