Following my last newsletter I am reprinting an item from my Yoga in Islandia Newsletter of 12 years ago -- still timely, in this era of extreme misogyny in D.C.:
YOGA JOURNAL – June 2007 issue – my Letter to the Editor was published!
“He Said, She Said” –
“Thank you for reviewing Nischala Joy Devi’s book in ‘A Feminine Critique’ (March ’07). I have been a feminist for as long as I have been studying yoga. My consciousness is continually alerted when teachers use the male pronoun in their writings, so I change ‘he’ to ‘she’. In doing so, I hope to raise a feminist consciousness in my own students.

I wish you good health, good times & good friends!
