thanks for the info Kalima. Im sorry that u felt that u had to make this an official letter of your stance in whole thing. All i asked for was the date. I am sorry to say that i don't understand the compartmental pieces of how u identify yourself.i don't understand that multiple identities. i wear different hats but the core of who i am doesn't change. I am greatly disappointed in you making the suggestion in spite of knowing how Helen is viewed by the veteran community.Stating that the fact you stand as an Afro-Latina anti-oppressive social worker what does that mean? Whatever u stand for it certainly has not been for veterans and to be saying u are part of the struggle u sure are quiet. U sound like Dean Takamuara right now and i am deeply hurt that u would suggest such a thing and then frankly forget about it and note that your were not interested after making the suggestion.

Wow I see you with different eyes you and your "comrade" Marion speaks very strongly to me where you dont stand in this whole thing. what are you doing with vets if you dont care? Every one has a price to pay and agrees to continued oppression in order to stay in that line of work. Dont talk to me about who you think you are because ur trying to fit into something against ur spirit and ur spirit is losing or has already disappeared. your voice is even more oppressed than the rest of us. Stop using veterans if u dont care about us. now that sounds like a helen bennedict move. wow! totally embarrassed by ur influence on the capstone project if that is the case as a veteran and as a board member of swan there is damage from the person i least expected it from. You claim nothing and it says everything.
