On Monday, I was thrilled to receive a message from the International Museum of Women in San Francisco, saying Paris Parfait has been included in their online exhibition:
"We are pleased to announce that Paris
Parfait was selected to be featured in the Women, Power and Politics
online exhibition at the International Museum of Women. Her recent posts
about U.S. Vice Presidential candidate Sarah Palin were included in
a story with other women bloggers from around the world who are discussing
Palin. View the story here: http://www.imow.org/wpp/
Women, Power and Politics is a multi-media, global online exhibition available in Arabic, English, French and Spanish. From March 8 to December 31, 2008, the exhibition focuses on a provocative new topic each month and features submissions from artists, activists and organizations doing work related to exhibition topics.
You can get involved in Women, Power and Politics by reading the exhibition stories, signing up for a profile in the community, participating in a conversation, submitting your work to an exhibition topic, or taking a recommended action to support women's political participation around the world. Start exploring the exhibition at www.imow.org/wpp.
Congratulations Tara! :)
