honor the past but

tbarryfigu, like you, I honor people who protested in the bus, at the lunch counter, in the town square, on the Mall in D.C, at military installations. Does it dishonor them to say that there are new means to protest injustice? I actually think blogs are (and can be) a big part of that movement.

Another thing to consider is that women are the caregivers of society. 

They work to care for the elderly, the sick and the young. There is a huge impact on how much 
we could ask of women who are doing so much to hold together their families and communities.  

If they don't come out for a march, you can't attribute this to apathy.
