I grew up a Tomboy, and was once asked by another kid, if I was a boy or a girl? Fair question. As I recall, I'd just beaten him up. "I'm a girl," I said, "but I'm going to be a boy when I grow up."<br />
<br />
Most of us, if asked, knew what sex we were from the time we could talk. I knew I was a girl, but I wanted to be a boy. Boys had freedom from dresses and dolls, perms, and keeping clean.<br />

<span style="font-size: x-small;"><a href="https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/232363.php" target="_blank">Historically, the terms "sex" and "gender" have been used interchangeably</a>, but their uses are becoming increasingly
distinct, and it is important to understand the differences between the
two.<a href="https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/232363.php" target="_blank"> This article</a> will look at the meaning of "sex" and the
differences between the sexes. It will also look at the meaning of
"gender," and the concepts of gender roles, gender identity, and gender
expression. In general terms, "sex" refers to the biological
differences between males and females, such as the genitalia and genetic
differences. "Gender" is more difficult to define, but it can
refer to the role of a male or female in society, known as a gender
role, or an individual's concept of themselves, or gender identity. Sometimes,
a person's genetically assigned sex does not line up with their gender
identity. These individuals might refer to themselves as transgender,
non-binary, or gender-nonconforming. </span></div>

Until a couple years ago, I knew zero about transgenderism. I have lots of gay friends, but didn't know anyone who was trans. Or I didn't think I did.<br />

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;">
Before I wrote <i>Finch</i>, I had no dog in the fight. I'm straight, <a href="https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-1-d&q=cisgender+meaning" target="_blank">cisgender</a>, old, widowed, childless, white, and a lapsed Episcopalian. I grew up in Central Florida during the civil rights era, but was too young and self-centered to really notice what was happening. We certainly weren't in the thick of it. My saving grace has turned out to be that I detest injustice. </div>

I swore that, given the opportunity to speak up for an oppressed group, I would. When an acquaintance came out as trans and had <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sex_reassignment_surgery" target="_blank"><span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-size: small;">r</span></span></a><span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-size: small;"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sex_reassignment_surgery" target="_blank">eassignment surgery</a> at age 70, I </span></span><span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-size: small;">had my chance. </span></span><span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-size: small;">I peppered her with questions, and read everything she suggested starting with <a href="https://abcnews.go.com/Nightline/video/nicole-born-identical-twin-boys-now-brother-sister-34539470" target="_blank">Becoming Nicole.</a></span></span></div>

<a href="https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/43263228-freeing-finch" target="_blank"><i>Freeing Finch</i></a> was a book I'd written a decade ago about an abandoned dog and a young girl whose mother died leaving her to be raised by her recently remarried step-father. The abandonment theme of that book reminded me of many of the stories I was reading about families turning their backs on their gender-questioning children. It didn't seem like too much of a leap to add <a href="https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-1-d&q=gender+dysphoria" target="_blank">gender dysphoria</a> to that character's issues, especially considering the recent spate of LGBTQ-bashing by this administration. <br />
<br />
Now that <i>Finch</i> is available, I'm seeing how deeply ingrained and common this government-sanctioned bashing is. Just today's news:<span style="font-size: small;"> </span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Survival Sister</b></span><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
If you transported me back in time,<br />
<br />
when we shared a damp sleeping bag,<br />
your tiny popsicle toes scratching into the backs of<br />
my warm bent knees<br />
with stars for a roof and no walls of support<br />
<br />
when those tiny toes kicked my sterilized top bunk<br />
from your bottom
bleached fort at the homeless<br />
shelter while mom flirted for escape,<br />
inevitably finding us a leather<br />
stepfather across the clanging room of<br />
metal cafeteria food<br />
<br />
when you made yourself my backpack<br />
as we cowered in the corner, my<br />
concave chest failing to expand into the<br />
puffed out superhero stance I
sought to<br />
protect you from the bloodshed<br />
<br />
If you had told me then,<br />
with your little voice that had yet to<br />
learn it’s ‘r‘ sounds.<br />
<br />
If you had taken my scarred young face<br />
in your tiny speckled hands, two sets of<br />
matching Bambi eyes that continued to<br />
watch our mother dying from this<br />
disease. Eyes that stared deep into a future of<br />
burnt hope, determination rising from the ashes<br />
of the cigarette burns in our 25-cent tights that<br />
never took us to ballet class.<br />
<br />
If you had told me then that I would be kneeling<br />
before you, painting rainbows on your glorious<br />
pregnant belly as your first born miracle danced<br />
glittery pirouettes around our 40-year bond.<br />
<br />
If you had told me then, my Survival Sister.<br />
Then I would tell you…<br />
it’s all going to be ok. <br />
<br />
<br />

There isn't anything I can do about a man like Liautaud. Boycotting a place I've never eaten in (and never will) isn't the way to get my heartache to stop. Sharing the good work people are doing to save animals, is a better use of my time and energy. Let the Liautauds, the Trump boys, and their ilk, come to their own end. <br />

I passed one of these trucks yesterday on Hwy 101 north of Santa Rosa. The cages were so short, the chickens were lying on their sides. It was the most sickening disregard for a live being I've ever seen. And if this doesn't do it for you, think of the terror of traveling at 55 mph in open air. There was no ID on the truck, so no way to know which farm they came from or where they were going.<br />
<br />
<br /> <br />
Jul 24, 2018 - At the slaughterhouse, after being held in the trucks for 1 to 12 hours, chickens raised for meat are torn from the cages and hung upside down ... <a data-ft="{"tn":"-U"}" data-lynx-mode="async" data-lynx-uri="https://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.upc-online.org%2Ftransport%2F%3Ffbclid%3DIwAR3P6n1e9835oS4bWEuGEt8Iy3Rw3fZSsaiWE6qg9UlPSVIo2PXBClJGr2g&h=AT2vpazVB399ymUjVcTrKmn7Se02g8KyRIkvnxZuDHMz8f1z4ScF4ZMQksgP2C7guKAuBra2nUuMgaFYcA-fKRJbrOUrWl1SnbJdNs5gu4o-9PLzAqkP4VueZb5Ms_P0K2142jW60ur8KzY8I4JnzW6WFwAIhX4MEIT6LlEJM-eLfWLDZHSKaZPpiQ" href="https://www.upc-online.org/transport/?fbclid=IwAR3P6n1e9835oS4bWEuGEt8Iy3Rw3fZSsaiWE6qg9UlPSVIo2PXBClJGr2g" rel="noopener nofollow" target="_blank">https://www.upc-online.org/transport/</a><br />

I have to admit, it's because technology threw me. I have a lovely new website that I don't know how to use. I tried blogging from it and failed. I didn't want to keep bugging my web-designer, so I put off trying again and time does what time does. It moved on, leaving me further behind.<br />
<br />
Today, I read something I thought would make a good post and found this one by Maureen. It's the one I couldn't get uploaded to my website. But, by golly, this old blogspot is still up and running and even has viewers, so I'm going to give it a shot. One year late. Apologies Maureen.<br />

My friend, Maureen Eppstein, is a New Zealander with an accent I could listen to all day. She's a naturalist and poet, with an eye for astonishingly beautiful details. <br />

Those of us who know and love Char were terribly upset and worried about her. If you don't know her, she took over Suzanne Byerley's creative writing classes when Suz moved to Ohio. She is a past Executive Director of the Mendocino Coast Writers' Conference, where her focus was creating a safe place for diverse voices. I was in a writing group with her. Those of you who have read<i> Lost in the River Grass</i> may recognize her influence. <br />
<br />
I'm going to tell you right up front that she's doing better. Much better. This then becomes, not just her brush with a scary health issue, but our society's brush with another scary disease--the metastasizing of bigotry.<br />

I've done this. Showered with spiders. I'm not afraid of them, though admittedly, I will capture and release BIG ones. A friend sent this <i>Orion Magazine </i>article and it reminded me that here in the Pacific Northwest, we are always finding spiders in our bathtubs.

The itsy-bitsy spider<br />
Climbed up the water spout<br />
Down came the rain <br />
And washed the spider out<br />
Out came the sun<br />
And dried up all the rain<br />

Climbed up the spout again<br />

In spite of this message of determination, spiders drown easily, so pre-shower preparations include checking and removing spiders that aren't ceiling high.<br />

As frequent readers of this blog know, I'm originally from Florida. We have serious spiders down there. My favorite is the Golden Orb spider. I probably like them best because I made friends with one once. I found and hand-raised a baby Spotted-breasted Oriole. They are fruit-eaters, but for protein I always had a supply of mealworms for him. A golden orb spider had her web outside our back door. She would hide into a corner whenever the door opened. One morning I let the dog out and flipped a mealworm into her web. She stayed hidden, but when I did the same thing the next morning, she ran down her web, sank her fangs into it and began wrapping it in silk. On the third morning, she sat in the center of her web waiting for me and took the mealworm from my fingers. <br />

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">I know I haven't done a blog post in months. First my computer hit the skids after 14 years (I </span><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">was still using XP), then a month of 'last minute' prep for the writers' conference and the conference itself. I also have a much-needed new website in the works. Excuses, excuses. Maybe I just ran out of steam for a while. Then yesterday a friend sent me this video. I, who have loved and been an advocate for animals all my life, would give anything to have this ability. I even took an animal communication class once, and failed. I want to believe it's possible. This video has come pretty close to convincing me. Either way, it's heartwarming. </span><br />

strolling through the unrelenting pink princess aisles for girls at Toys R Us,
seeing toy after toy with images of skinny, impossibly pretty royalty and the
overwhelming emphasis on “prettiness,” I’ve come up with a new toy mirror for
girls. <i> Princess Lily’s Enchanted Mirror</i>™ is a
plastic hand mirror, large but light to hold. When a young girl lifts the
mirror, the technology is activated: soft music plays, clouds swirl and in a
moment the child sees, as if arriving from faraway, a 3-dimensional fairy
godmother type figure coming closer.
This is Princess Lily. The music stops and Princess Lily’s face now
fills nearly the whole mirror surface. She speaks to the girl from the world of
the mirror. She tells the child, a fun bit of poetry, sings a short song,
provides an affirmation or empowering suggestion. What Princess Lily says is
unpredictable: sometimes playful, sometimes funny, sometimes serious, but
always <i>supportive.</i> After she speaks
her words to the child, she vanishes within clouds so the mirror becomes once
again simply a mirror in which the child sees herself, but perhaps in a
different, more positive way because of the reassuring words just imparted to
her. </span></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: black; font-size: 10.0pt;">To
understand <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">why </i>I’ve created this toy
idea, read on:</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="font-size: 10.0pt; line-height: 150%; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">Since the 1995 publication of the landmark book <u>Reviving
Ophelia</u>* there has been greater awareness of the importance of a strong
self-image for young girls to counter the “beauty-perfect” images that pervade
the media through television, movies, video games, toys and advertising.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The book and subsequent research have brought
to light the insidious impact the popular media and societal pressure have on
the self-image of young girls who learn at a very early age that being pretty
and attractive to boys is a measure of self-worth and social success.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The research revealed that even the
self-esteem of strong, confident girls diminishes dramatically from the age of
seven as they become more exposed to mass culture.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "calibri"; font-size: 10.0pt; line-height: 150%;">Because children are learning new
behaviors and “wiring their brain,” affirmations can be particularly effective
with them. Research shows that positive self-belief developed in childhood
stays throughout life. When children hear words of praise and
encouragement, they learn to praise, and respect <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">themselves</i>. Once affirmations are learned, they work by coming to
mind when that belief is challenged.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Also<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">, </i>the more an affirmation is repeated, <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">the stronger it becomes.</i> </span></div>
<div style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "calibri"; font-size: 10.0pt; line-height: 150%;">Also of importance, affirmations are
believed to be the most powerful when said or heard <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">while looking into a mirror</i>. Young girls introduced to this concept
may feel more comfortable and self-assured looking at themselves in the mirror
as they mature. </span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="font-size: 10.0pt; line-height: 150%; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">Because the mirror is programmed with hundreds of
words of encouragement and because they take a varied form: rhymes, riddles,
charming, unexpected thoughts, serious affirmations and questions, the toy does
not present as didactic, nor can it quickly become predictable as are the
current crop of toy mirrors. Rather Princess Lily’s Enchanted Mirror continues
with each use to be unpredictable—surprising, fresh and above all, more <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">fun.</i><span style="color: black;"></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">

Lily’s Enchanted Mirror</span></i><span style="font-size: 10.0pt; line-height: 150%; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;"> is accompanied by a
small storybook that tells the story of Princess Lily and her three empowering
sisters, the enchanted land in which they live and how the mirror came to be
“enchanted.”<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It also includes a guide for
parents in giving positive affirmations and modeling and encouraging the
self-awareness of feelings.<span style="color: black;"></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; vertical-align: top;">

Lily’s Enchanted Mirror</span></i><span style="font-size: 10.0pt; line-height: 150%; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;"> reflects to the child
not merely her external appearance, but her <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">inner</i>
strength and beauty.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The mirror
anticipates the child’s age-appropriate anxieties, concerns and doubts and
gently and creatively suggests behaviors and thoughts to challenge them. In
this way, <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Princess Lily’s Enchanted
Mirror</i> functions as both a toy <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">and</i>
a psychological tool.</span></div>

Additionally, dolphins often start to display <a href="http://www.bornfreeusa.org/articles.php?p=1595&more=1">zoochotic</a>
behaviors similar to symptoms of prison neurosis when left in a tank
that prohibits them from exercising their intellect and social skills.
Extremely stressed animals are known to engage in acts of <a href="http://us.whales.org/blog/2013/05/dolphin-slams-into-wall-at-ocean-park-hong-kong-is-this-normal">self-mutilation</a>,
like throwing themselves against the walls of their tanks. Those and
other symptoms even lead to feeding captive marine animals
pharmaceuticals – SeaWorld has admitted to medicating their orcas with <a href="http://www.onegreenplanet.org/news/seaworlds-orcas-on-psychoactive-drugs/">psychoactive drugs</a> similar to valium." <i>OneGreenPlant</i></span></span><br />

beans are sourced from the Bengkulu plantations in Southwestern
Sumatra, Indonesia, where freely roaming wild palm civets can choose the
best and the ripest coffee berries through a process of natural

<em>UPDATE (3-29-2017): EPA director Scott Pruitt signed an order denying the agency's <a href="https://www.epa.gov/ingredients-used-pesticide-products/proposal-revoke-chlorpyrifos-food-residue-tolerances" target="_blank">own proposal to ban chlorpyrifos</a>, according to a Wednesday afternoon <a href="https://www.epa.gov/newsreleases/epa-administrator-pruitt-denies-petition-ban-widely-used-pesticide-0" target="_blank">press release</a>.
"We need to provide regulatory certainty to the thousands of American
farms that rely on chlorpyrifos, while still protecting human health and
the environment,” Pruitt said in a written statement. “By reversing the
previous Administration’s steps to ban one of the most widely used
pesticides in the world, we are returning to using sound science in
decision-making – rather than predetermined results.”</em><br />
<br />
By Friday, President Donald Trump's Environmental Protection Agency
will have to make a momentous decision: whether to protect kids from a
widely used pesticide that's known to harm their brains—or protect the
interests of the chemical's maker, Dow AgroSciences.<br />
<br />
The pesticide in question, chlorpyrifos, is a nasty piece of work.
It's an organophosphate, a class of bug killers that work by
"interrupting the electrochemical processes that nerves use to
communicate with muscles and other nerves," as the <em>Pesticide Encyclopedia</em> <a href="https://books.google.com/books?id=cnDHBgAAQBAJ&lpg=PA4&ots=w4jTqUyU5P&dq=interrupting%20the%20electrochemical%20processes%20that%20nerves%20use%20to%20communicate%20with%20muscles%20and%20with%20other%20nerves&pg=PA4#v=onepage&q=interrupting%20the%20electrochemical%20processes%20that%20nerves%20use%20to%20communicate%20with%20muscles%20and%20with%20other%20nerves&f=false" target="_blank">puts it</a>. <br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">My father was Danish. Rorby is a Danish name. This makes me none to proud of that fact. Not only do I think this is appalling on so many levels, I also don't think it's something children should be exposed to. I remember too clearly the day my first dog died. My Yankee parents moved to Florida and didn't know about heartworms. I was five when Butch and I raced up our porch stairs and he fell over dead. I was 9 or 10 when Mom took me to see the circus. We stopped to watch the elephants parade through downtown Orlando. Right in front of us, one of them collapsed and died. We never went to that circus, or any other. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">I write realistic animal stories, but I sure as hell wouldn't want a child of mine exposed to this inhumane practice. I'd like to continue laboring under the belief zoos teach us to respect and value animals, and are a refuge for the endangered. This practice, even if necessary on a financial level, teaches children to view animals as something less than we humans are. Teaching disrespect for nature only adds to our egocentric view of the world and is at the root of habitat destruction and the loss of animal (and plant) species. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Hi Ginny!
</span><br />
<div>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Just wanted to update you a bit! Sorry it's been so long, things have been
pretty busy, but I have some exciting news. </span></div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">I'm a senior this year, and I just received my acceptance letter to my top
choice college for their Education of the Deaf and Hard of Hearing program
English major. The school is renowned for its early- and special-education
programs, and they have a 5-year integrated Bachelors and Masters program. This
year my school introduced ASL as a class to fulfill the foreign language
requirement, and my teacher is excellent with tapering to her students and
having individual expectations from each so we get the most from the class.
Also, they've added a relatively new Bridge program and I'm close friends with a
Deaf student from the program. Her and her interpreter have been a tremendous
help to me. I'll never forget the look on her face when I signed to her for the
first time and pulled her into conversation with my friends. I truly feel like
I'm making a difference, though a small one, because Joey's story gave me a
glimpse of the Deaf perspective and helps me to understand that the little
things matter. The message from <i>Hurt Go Happy</i> still sticks with me to
this day, and it relates to my different life experiences as I grow older. My
signed copy still sits rightfully displayed on my dresser; I would like to again
say thank you. </span></div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">I hope all is well with you, and to hear back if you get the chance!</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"> Lauren</span></div>

cellphones allowed, and anybody who did use a cellphone had someone stand in
front of them and yell: “Don’t use that phone!” Everything was yelled, and
everything was public, and this was the most awful thing, I heard things
happening in that room happening to other people that made me ashamed to be
human.</span></div>
<div class="gmail-indent" style="color: black; font-family: 'times new roman',times,serif; line-height: 17px; margin: 10px 0px 20px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-indent: 30pt;">
<span style="font-size: medium;">There was an Iranian woman in a wheelchair, she was about 80, wearing a
little mauve cardigan, and they were yelling at her – “Arabic? Arabic?”. They
screamed at her “ARABIC?” at the top of their voices, and finally she intuited
what they wanted and I heard her say “Farsi”. And I thought heaven help her,
she’s Iranian, what’s going to happen?</span></div>
<div class="gmail-indent" style="color: black; font-family: 'times new roman',times,serif; line-height: 17px; margin: 10px 0px 20px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-indent: 30pt;">
<span style="font-size: medium;">There was a woman from Taiwan, being yelled at about at about how she
made her money, but she didn’t understand the question. The officer was yelling
at her: “Where does your money come from, does it grow on trees? Does it fall
from the sky?” It was awful.</span></div>
<div class="gmail-indent" style="color: black; font-family: 'times new roman',times,serif; line-height: 17px; margin: 10px 0px 20px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-indent: 30pt;">
<span style="font-size: medium;">There was no toilet, no water, and there was this woman with a baby. If I
had been holed up in that room with a pouch on my chest, and a baby crying, or
needing to be fed, oh God … the agony I was surrounded by in that room was like
a razor blade across my heart.</span></div>
<div class="gmail-indent" style="color: black; font-family: 'times new roman',times,serif; line-height: 17px; margin: 10px 0px 20px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-indent: 30pt;">
<span style="font-size: medium;">When I was called to be interviewed I was rereading a novel from 40 years
ago – thank God I had a novel. It was <i>The Red and the Black</i> by <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/books/2003/may/24/featuresreviews.guardianreview30" style="color: black; margin: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" target="_blank">Stendhal</a> – a 19th century novel keeps you quiet on a long
flight, and is great in a crisis – and I was buried in it and didn’t hear my
name called. And a woman in front of me said: “They are calling for Fox.” I
didn’t know which booth to go to, then suddenly there was a man in front of me,
heaving with weaponry, standing with his legs apart yelling: “No, not there,
here!” I apologised politely and said I’d been buried in my book and he said:
“What do you expect me to do, stand here while you finish it?” – very loudly and
with shocking insolence.</span></div>
<div class="gmail-indent" style="color: black; font-family: 'times new roman',times,serif; line-height: 17px; margin: 10px 0px 20px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-indent: 30pt;">
<span style="font-size: medium;">The way I was interviewed was monstrous. If only they had been able to
look into my suitcase and see my books. The irony! I had a copy of my new book
I’m Australian, Too – it’s about immigration and welcoming people to live in a
happy country. I am all about inclusivity, humanity and the oneness of the
humans of the world; it’s the theme of my life. I also had a copy of my book <a href="http://memfox.com/books/ten-little-fingers-and-ten-little-toes/" style="color: black; margin: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" target="_blank">Ten Little Fingers and Ten Little Toes</a>. I told him I had all
these inclusive books of mine in my bag, and he yelled at me: “I can
read!”</span></div>
<div class="gmail-indent" style="color: black; font-family: 'times new roman',times,serif; line-height: 17px; margin: 10px 0px 20px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-indent: 30pt;">
<span style="font-size: medium;">He was less than half my age – I don’t look 70 but I don’t look 60
either, I’m an older woman – and I was standing the whole time. The belligerence
and violence of it was really terrifying. I had to hold the heel of my right
hand to my heart to stop it beating so hard.</span></div>
<div class="gmail-indent" style="color: black; font-family: 'times new roman',times,serif; line-height: 17px; margin: 10px 0px 20px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-indent: 30pt;">
<span style="font-size: medium;">They were not apologetic at any point. When they discovered that one of
Australia’s official gifts to Prince George was Ten Little Fingers and Ten
Little Toes, he held out his hand and said: “It’s been a pleasure to meet you,
Ms Fox.” I was close to collapse, very close to fainting, and this nearly broke
me – it was the creepiest thing of all.</span></div>
<div class="gmail-indent" style="color: black; font-family: 'times new roman',times,serif; line-height: 17px; margin: 10px 0px 20px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-indent: 30pt;">
<span style="font-size: medium;">I had been upright, dignified, cool and polite, and this was so cruelly
unexpected, so appalling, that he should say it was a pleasure. It couldn’t have
been a pleasure for him to treat me like that, unless he was a
psychopath.</span></div>
<div class="gmail-indent" style="color: black; font-family: 'times new roman',times,serif; line-height: 17px; margin: 10px 0px 20px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-indent: 30pt;">
<span style="font-size: medium;">In that moment I loathed America. I loathed the entire country. And it
was my 117th visit to the country so I know that most people are very generous
and warm-hearted. They have been wonderful to me over the years. I got over that
hatred within a day or two. But this is not the way to win friends, to do this
to someone who is Australian when we have supported them in every damn war. It’s
absolutely outrageous.</span></div>
<div class="gmail-indent" style="color: black; font-family: 'times new roman',times,serif; line-height: 17px; margin: 10px 0px 20px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-indent: 30pt;">
<span style="font-size: medium;">Later in the hotel room I was shaking like a leaf. I rang my friend, my
American editor and bawled and bawled, and she told me to write it all down, and
I wrote for two hours. I fell asleep thinking I would sleep for eight hours but
I woke up an hour and a half later just sobbing. I had been sobbing in my sleep.
It was very traumatic.</span></div>
<div class="gmail-indent" style="color: black; font-family: 'times new roman',times,serif; line-height: 17px; margin: 10px 0px 20px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-indent: 30pt;">
<span style="font-size: medium;">After I got back to Australia I had an apology from the American embassy.
I was very impressed, they were very comforting, and I’ve had so many messages
of support from Americans and American authors.</span></div>
<div class="gmail-indent" style="color: black; font-family: 'times new roman',times,serif; line-height: 17px; margin: 10px 0px 20px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-indent: 30pt;">
<span style="font-size: medium;">I am a human being, so I do understand that these people might not be
well-trained, but they now have carte blanche to be as horrible and belligerent
as they want. They’ve gone mad – they’ve got all the power that they want but
they don’t have the training.</span></div>
<div class="gmail-indent" style="color: black; font-family: 'times new roman',times,serif; line-height: 17px; margin: 10px 0px 20px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-indent: 30pt;">
<span style="font-size: medium;">They made me feel like such a crushed, mashed, hopeless old lady and I am
a feisty, strong, articulated English speaker. I kept thinking that if this were
happening to me, a person who is white, articulate, educated and fluent in
English, what on earth is happening to people who don’t have my
power?</span></div>
<div class="gmail-indent" style="color: black; font-family: 'times new roman',times,serif; line-height: 17px; margin: 10px 0px 20px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-indent: 30pt;">
<span style="font-size: medium;">That’s the heartbreak of it. Remember, I wasn’t pulled out because I’m
some kind of revolutionary activist, but my God, I am now. I am on the
frontline. If we don’t stand up and shout, good sense and good will not prevail,
and my voice will be one of the loudest.</span></div>
<div class="gmail-indent" style="color: black; font-family: 'times new roman',times,serif; line-height: 17px; margin: 10px 0px 20px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-indent: 30pt;">
<span style="font-size: medium;">That’s what it has taught me. I thought I was an activist before, but
this has turned me into a revolutionary. I’m not letting it happen here. Instead
of crying and being sad and sitting on a couch, I am going to write to
politicians. I am going to call. I am going to write to newspapers. I am going
to get on the radio. I will not be quiet. No more passive behaviour. Hear me
roar.</span></div>
<div class="gmail-indent" style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman",times,serif; line-height: 17px; margin: 10px 0px 20px; padding: 0px; text-align: center; text-indent: 30pt;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Ginny's thought for the day: </span></div>
<div class="gmail-indent" style="color: black; font-family: "times new roman",times,serif; line-height: 17px; margin: 10px 0px 20px; padding: 0px; text-align: center; text-indent: 30pt;">
<span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-size: large;">There is nothing scarier than a peon with power. </span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
Dear Ginny Rorby,</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br />
I am writing to you about one of your books <i>How to Speak Dolphin</i>. I have read this book many times and I love it. I am around Lily’s age and my brother Win is around Adam’s age.Win has autism just like Adam. He does not have severe autism like Adam but he still acts like him. He goes to therapy and goes to a regular daycare.They aren’t even a daycare for kids like Win, but he has a nice lady who goes to school with him everyday and they love him a lot.<br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Your book has let me know that I’m not the only one who might feel like Lily does about Adam. I have a special love and bond for Win who I have for no one else. I can’t have sleepovers at my house with friends, he comes into my room and messes up my bed, and he screams when he wants something. I know he can’t help it and I really understand it but it is very hard not to feel discouraged. Lily met Zoe who is blind and a sick dolphin named Nori. They both made Lily realise that it’s okay. Adam might always deal with autism but things will be alright. This book has taught me that it’s okay too. Win is wonderful and might always deal with autism too but he will be okay. Like Adam, Win has people who love him and want what’s best. I love Win and better understand what he’s going through because of Lily and Adam.<br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
This book has changed the way I look at kids or people with special needs just like Win has. I am more patient and kind with those who have special needs because of him. I absolutely love this book and hope you can write more about things like this. Thank you for writing such a wonderful book.<br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
