Given that Holly Near has been a mentor for me throughout my life, I'm wondering if there are any Holly Near fans present on this site. Check her out at www.hollynear.com.

I am on her mailing list. Anyone who fights for animal rights around the world is someone of interest to me. Not to minimize all her other good works.

WoW...Whittlewoman, I am delighted to find another Holly Near fan, and Chatty too.
I was instrumental in forming a Womens choir in the 90's..our name was Brigantia a forty/fifty strong group of amazin' women who were activist in all aspects. We used Holly Near songs in our line up. Our main aim was fun being a feminist issue......oh boy did we have a ball. We played alot of womens events, fundraised for Womens Aid and did the festivals North and South of Ireland. I am soo glad you posted a link to her site....late Christmas pressies for me....wooooo.hoooooo. Thank you.

Oh yea! Women who know Holly Near's music! I've just finished a talking stick for her that I've been working on for months. Her newest album "Show Up" is fantastic. Daily I ponder a line from one of her songs that says,"...I fear what you do in the name of your God."
Celtic Flame, dinner at your house in time I'd agree to.

Celtic Flame, I certainly subscribe to loving the life into one another as often as it can happen. It seems that Popea would be as curious a dinner companion as you. I say invite her. When I come I'll be bringing my partner, Lynn.

Popea, please check out my explanation of talking sticks on Re-defininig life/What do you do? I will post some pictures of some sticks when I figure out how to and yes they are available to anyone interested.
