Hey, I tried to sign up for the network using the address in a recent email,
(something that ended with c-a-h.net) but it told me that the site didn't
exist....
If there is a mailing list for people or organizations that were involved in
the summit, I know a couple people who would like to get on it, if that is
possible.
Thanks to everyone who's put in hard work on this...

What happened to the Network? Please take me off the list
Hello,
I just wanted to say helping to organize the Anti-racism summit was an
experience. However as far as building the network, I am either out of
the loop or it's not happening. Well what ever is going on I am sure
you all will figure it out, I just got a new job that is demanding of
my time and the people her in Western Mass has definately taught me a
few things
1: Organizations are about draining resources, not making them
available to the community
2: If you speak out the white liberals wont work with you,and Black
capitalists will be the quiet poster negro for these white liberals,
and or those who need to feel good by helping others, who really
actually are only place to suck power from our communities. Well I say
so what, I am still going to continue the work I do until I find that
place that is actually here for Black poets like myself. I guess i was
hoping things would be different this time with the "Anti-Racism"
summit. That there would actually be a network built.
3: Althought I was at so many meetings, I feel so disempowered, because
I feel it's mainly white people behind the curtains of the Anti-racsim
network.
4: Never to take anything serious if it's about helping Black people.
Well I hope what ever network that does get built, someone earns from
it. Much love and be well.
Maurice "Soulfighter" Taylor
