Exciting New Feature on Grassroots Journal

After far too many days without a new post on Grassroots Journal–well, okay, weeks–we are once again turning our attention to the weblog.

For starters, we have an exciting new feature that allows readers to share these posts, simply by clicking on the envelope icon that appears at the bottom of each entry in the journal, where it says « Email this post. » If you see something here that you like and want to send it along, just click the envelope and mail away.

Now that we’re back, we will continue to bring you news from our partners, links to insightful and inspirational and websites, and our own analysis of the challenges and successes of our partners abroad.

We should have plenty to talk about.

Nisrin Elamin (whose report about GRI’s participation at the Boston Social forum appears in the latest issue of Grassroots ONLINE, along with news on the prisoners’ hunger strike in Palestine/Israel and on the shocking trial and acquittal of Jodel Chamblain in Haiti, and other stories) is heading to the Books Not Bombs Youth Convergence in New York City this weekend, and she’ll be sharing her thoughts on that experience.

Stay tuned.
