The Global Women’s March in Seville


On January 20, 2018, Seville joined millions around the world marching for gender equality. And we're ready to rise up again. “The #WomensWave is coming,” say this year's US organizers, “and we’re sweeping the world forward with us.”

STOP, LOOK, LISTEN! by Kathy Sherretts

Read something different!

It’s important to keep reading and stay informed, but please! Don’t get suffocated by another load from the Trump crapwagon. 
According to Wikipedia, olfactory fatigue is the temporary, normal inability to distinguish an odor after prolonged exposure. I used to work at a sewage treatment plant, and I can attest that this adjustment happens quickly. It is not only normal, it’s vital. (Without it, I wouldn’t have been able to keep my job). But prolonged exposure can blunt your sensitivity. Time for a breath of fresh air!
Website: A little something for everyone: The Utne Reader can offer some new topics and perspectives from outside our normal news sources.
Classics: More books entering the public domain this year will start showing up on this audiobook website for free: Librivox.org
Low-tech: Check out an actual book store! Seville’s book shops have a better selection than ever of English-language books; also, look in a public library, or borrow a book from a friend. Sit in a café, and read for an hour. (Bonus: "smelling coffee ... can limit or reverse olfactory fatigue.")
