Women’s day continued from page 1A Amidst non-stop musical en tertainment from the main stage, attendees could stroll through an exhibit of area artists, bid in a silent auction, peruse rows of in formation tables and craft ven dors or attend scheduled work shops that ranged from “Healing Hate Crimes and Discrimination”* to “Hot and Sexy Midlife.” Much of the workshop sched ule featured discussions of youth issues. This particular theme was in part sparked by the blue rib bon of promise campaign at Thurston High School. The primary coordinator for the event, Kyra Kelly, said bring ing in community members ac tive with youth in Eugene to share stories of hope and encour agement during panel discus sions would be a step in a posi tive direction. “People like this are part of the solution,” she said. “We need each other’s support, too. There’s incredible strength in women coming together.” Brenna Patterson of Students for Choice said understanding youth culture is important but so is getting young people interest ed in broader goals. “It’s important because youth need to get involved with inter national issues,” she said. “And this is a great place to meet peo ple who are doing good work in ALL DAY TUESDAY PIZZ* pETf* S2673 Willamette • 484-0996 § “this location only" Hiroshi Nakamura Emerald Aietha Meece (left) and Joan Jost dance to the live music of Jill Sager’s drumming band at the International Women’s Day conference room at the downtown Hilton. our community, and learn from them.” Mother Kali’s Bookstore near campus has hosted scheduled events for weeks surrounding In ternational Women’s Day because a single day, as board president Lorraine Ironplow said, “is defi nitely not enough.” “We want to make sure that people understand the history of the day, in its full political ex pression,” she said. Ironplow described how Inter national Women’s Day has repre sented women’s struggle through suffrage, labor rights, child care, marriage laws and how it contin ues to stand for the issues women face in the next century. “Their struggle for a life is not lost when we remember and keep working toward our own goals for the future,” she said. Kelly echoed this when she referenced how the event locally has evolved over the years from a groundswell of women support ers and volunteers. “The more people that come to the table to help us plan, the more diversity we see in the event each year,” she said. “There are still a lot of issues to work on, but it’s not going to change unless we do first.” i Used all of your | ! favorite i oucu i i fft/WS'? | Come up and get more. | JjStop by the ODE offices, Suite 300, EMU. j Emerald P.O.
