Highlights of Superlove in New Orleans:
+ Tambourine Lady. A member of the Mahalia Jackson Choir who can play the tambourine with more spirit than I ever thought possible. Very inspiring, and definitely a show stealer.
+ Jane Fonda
+ Eve Ensler
+ Slam poet Alix Olson
+ Poet Lenelle Moise
+ Excellent speakers who brought attention to women's issues in the Congo, Native American populations, New Orleans, the Middle East, etc.
+ Yelling "cunt" in four different languages in the New Orleans Arena during the Vagina Monologues production
+ The giant bra ball in the entrance to the Superdome (photo to come)
+ Throwing plastic bead necklaces to passersby on Bourbon Street
+ Chugging hot and sour soup at the entrance to the Arena after being told we couldn't bring in food, bottles, or very large backpacks
+ Sensing my political leanings shift even further to the left
