In times of old, The Furies protected Mother Right. If a mother (or any woman) was harmed, The Furies swooped down and took their vengeance. They were one of the last vestiges of a world that existed before the patriarchy. When we feel righteous anger, it is The Furies who are calling out to us to make what is wrong right again.

Over 100,000 March Against Bush in London 

I had the TV on all day today, hoping to find out what was going on in London and Miami—plus, I check out the mainstream media occasionally to see if they've gotten any better or worse. (They just seem to be getting worse.) What did CNN and Faux News cover all day today? Michael Jackson. It was disgusting. So, as usual, I have turned to "alternative" news sources. Today protesters in London toppled an effigy statue of Bush. In Miami, police apparently gassed protesters. I checked out the Miami Herald online. They say violence broke out after the main demonstration—the police using violence against the protesters. The trade meetings ended early, but I don't know what that means yet. Hopefully we'll hear from Starhawk tonight.
