>> As part of the new Institute for Advanced Feminist
>> Research at UC Santa Cruz, a group of faculty are organizing a spring
>> symposium event on the topic of Feminism and Global War.  The
>> idea is to protest the current administration's foreign policy
>> and also address the larger issue of what can be done by a determined
>> group of feminists against the proliferation of global war
>> policies by this and other militaristic governments.  This is not
>> going
>> to be a traditional academic conference--it is intended to be
>> a brainstorming,  collaborative event that will
>> culminate in public action.
>>
>> We are looking for feminist ARTISTS who are producing
>> anti-war work and who would be interested in participating in the
>> event April 18-19.  We do not have a large budget, so we are
>> hoping to locate artists in the area.  However, if anyone on the list
>> knows of good people to contact (even out of the area) or even just
>> good work to look at, please let me know. And please feel free to
>> identify yourselves or to voice your interest in participating
>> even if you are not an artist.
>>
>> We are already aware of Women In Black, and we are
>> looking for other feminist anti-war art groups/projects/ideas.
