Blue Dragonfly Press wants spoken word and music that take on the injustices of the world! We want the graphic truth of what it's like to survive or not survive racism, sexism, colonialism, ethnocentrism, capitalism, homophobia, ableism, genocide, and other oppressions. We are especially looking for work by Native American artists, international artists, and work that addresses sexual violence, including prostitution. Blasé Redux by Fred Ho, Archie Shepp, and Christine Stark is already committed to the CD.

Blue Dragonfly Press is a new press dedicated to publishing work by talented artists who are marginalized by mainstream media because of content and form. Each artist/group will receive a specified number of complimentary copies, to be determined. Send your best work to Blue Dragonfly Press, P.O. Box 1426, Detroit Lakes, MN USA 56502.

Deadline: June 15th 2007. Questions: bluedragonflypress@hotmail.com

Hello PRE website viewers and fellow traffick-jammers. Welcome to the Traffick Jamming blog. We'll post up-to-the minute info on antitrafficking events, political actions, and of course your comments and observations about how prostitution/trafficking happens in the world, and your views about how to abolish these institutions that so profoundly harm women and girls. Welcome! Melissa Farley
