Sara Around Town


1976 GMC motorhome "The Engine of Mischief"
gettin' around in Utah


My second weekly piece for The Big Con is up as of today. It's a sequel to last week's piece on how the conservative war on America's infrastructure is undermining our ability to function as a democracy. (Special shout-out to our own GNB regular Ohio Mom, who provided the hook on which the whole essay hangs.)

Next week: My first-hand consumer comparison of the US and Canadian health care systems.

Also, the piece I wrote here last week on how RU-486 is changing the politics of abortion will (according to their editors) be appearing on Alternet's front page in the next couple days.

I get around....
