Profile Information

I am a(n): individual

City: Detroit

State: MI

Zip: 48224

Date I Joined Fight With Tools: July 17, 2008

Gender: Female

Sexual Orientation: Srtaight

Racial/Ethnic Background: Caucasian

About Me: I am the mother of a beautiful 4 year old girl, and she teaches me more about life than anything else could. I love music, reading, and mother nature. I believe that everyone should come together to make the world happy, clean, and peaceful.

How I would like to change the world:: Environmental issues are a huge problem for me. If we destroy the planet that gave us life, that planet will destroy us. My family has actually been researcgung intentional communities called ecovillages. They are based on living sustainably from the land. We are considering moving to one in the near future (a year or two from now). This is the best way we know how to reduce our impact on the environment. I would also like to be involved in actively promoting peace and ending consumerism. I would really like to start a non-profit organization to educate about reducing waste, reusing waste, and recycling waste.

Tools I Have: Intelligence, an open mind/heart, musical talent, ability to write, ability to lead/organize, a strong sense of morals, and a good network of friends and family with similar beliefs.

Tools I Need: A computer, more people to help, an organization center, contacts in the city of Detroit to work towards recycling city wide.

Favorite Bands: Flobots, Rage Against the Machine, Radiohead, The Beatles, Ani DiFranco, George Clinton, Pink Floyd, The Doors, The Raconteurs, The White Stripes, Alicia Keys, Jill Scott, John Legend, Common, Modest Mouse, Lupe Fiasco, The Killers, Steve Miller, The Used, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Pearl Jam, U2, Bob Dylan, Sublime, Bob Marley, Fleetwood Mac, Janis Joplin, Fiona Apple, Tom Petty, The Traveling Wilbury's, Gym Class Heroes, Hello Goodbye, Elton John, Simon and Garfunkel, Prince, Van Morrison, The Gap Band, everything Motown, I could continue on forever

What issues are you most passionate about?: yes

Consciousness

As a current resident of Detroit, dealing with no power for almost 3 months now, facing foreclosure, and wondering where do we go now, I constantly wonder what major issue is the reason for this. There are racial segregation issues, human rights issues (I was told that the tri-county area I live in jails more citizens per capita than any other area), poverty and welfare rights issues, we are in the middle of an energy crisis (as DTE is the one and only energy company available for both gas and… Continue

All about Cat

I exist! Recognizing that I do in fact exist, and that I know nothing more than this, defines me. It was a lot easier to answer the 'all about me' sections when I was still defined by my favorite color, best friends, favorite songs, and favorite tv show. Now...it's not that simple. I refuse to choose any one color as my favorite because I believe that all colors should be appreciated for their individual qualities and beauty. Best Friends? I often feel like a loner. I have plenty of… Continue

What am I doing?

It has been a whole month since I was in Denver, a very inspirational 4 days for me, and I don't think I have achieved much since I have been back. Currently in Detroit, winter is deep, hope is dormant, and I don't even know what I am doing. I have met with Grace Lee Boggs, friend of Dr. Vincent Harding's, and a revolutionary. She is a true leader, and an amazing woman. I have sat in many discussions and forums this month to hear other great minds share their knowledge, experiences, and… Continue

Hopefully you read Seth's email (last email sent to organizers) by now. No sure if she already contacted you, but we're planning on a regional gathering! So exciting! Seth is planning on hitting Detroit (2nd week of October) and then coming down to Chicago. It'd be awesome if you guys could come down with her or if I could meet up with you guys! We'll stay in touch :-D.
