Sara Marcus on WUWM right now!

Check it out at WUWM 89.7 FM or online at WUWM

TODAY IS THE DAY!

Good morning fresh peeps!

It is 8 am, and I've already been awake for over an hour thanks to an overzealous 9-month-old who likes to rise with the demon sun.

All the better to finish with the planning for your beautiful weekend!

YES!  GIRLS TO THE FRONT STARTS TONIGHT!
Help us kick this shit off tonight at 6:30pm at the Cream City Collectives, where we are simply dizzy with pride to present SARAH MARCUS, acclaimed author of GIRLS TO THE FRONT: THE TRUE STORY OF THE RIOT GIRL REVOLUTION.  Sarah will be reading from the book, which is hot off the goddamned presses from Harper Perennial, followed by a discussion, and a little RIOT GRRRL KARAOKE!

After the CCC, join us at the YNOT III for some amazing BANDS!  SOOK, THE OVENS, & THE CATHY SANTONIES, followed by a white-hot feminista dance party with TELEVORE.

Curious about the nuts and bolts?  A complete, 100% updated schedule and a map if the venues is now available right here on this website.  See the menu above.

See you there?

F**K YEAH, WE WILL!

LOVE! FREEDOM! VALOUR!

Down to the Wire! LAST GTTF MEET-UP BEFORE THE PARTY!!!

Felicitations friends!

Today is Monday, which means we are DOWN TO THE WIRE!!!, planning-wise, and incredibly awesomely, we still have folks asking if we have room for more rad events.  Hopefully, we will squeeze in just as much  amazing riot energy as we can!!

We still have plenty of room for volunteers, so if you're into it, now is the time to sign your ass UP!

For all those that are participating or would like to participate, we are having one GREAT BIG FINAL PLEASE-COME-IF-YOU-CAN-MAKE-IT MEETING!!!  The meeting will be on THURSDAY, at 6:30pm at THE PINK HOUSE STUDIO (on the corner of Booth and Wright Streets in Riverwest).  This is the last big meeting THE DAY BEFORE everything goes down, so we really want to get all of your fierce, lovely faces all in one place one time before the starter gun goes off so that we can all be fierce and lovely together in the most together-est way we can muster. 

Now is the time to show MKE (and, dare I say it, THE WORLD?!) what a bunch of dedicated positive thinking go-getters like us can accomplish with no time, no budget and a whole lot of heart.

So, what's up Milwaukee?  Let DO this shit.

See you there!

Yours in solidarity- Lauryl
