thanks so much to the beautiful Rebecca
Walker for including us in her May
newsletter!
Check it out...
It's fantastic + so chop - full of
great links and articles to read!!
We would love to stay in the beautiful
Organic Hotel
Guldsmeden she mentions
&
how incredible is this opportunity?! - writing workshop with
Rebecca in Hawaii!?
Makes me want
to write, just to go hang out with Rebecca in Hawaii!
Her interview
with Rebecca Skloot is amazing & eye opening!
The cells of one woman, Henrietta
Lacks are "one of the most important tools in modern medicine"...
"This is the story of how cells taken from a
black woman without her
knowledge became one of the most important advances in medicine and
launched a multi-billion-dollar industry, with drastic consequences for
her family. It's inextricably linked to the troubling history of
research conducted on African Americans without their consent....
This story is just as much about issues of
class and economic injustice."
I want everything from the mistress
of scents..
+ these are great
organizations to support
young women & micro-entrepreneurial
women.
thanks, Rebecca! (isn't her
site gorgeous?)
