One Billion Rising ~ Rise Up! ~ An evening of 5Rhythms Dance, Poetry & Change

 ,   Add to calendar
 San Anselmo-Fairfax  See map

Magic happens when we gather together and dance for a cause. Let’s rise up and Sweat our Prayers through a 5Rhythms™ Wave dedicated to stopping violence against women all over the world. We CAN change the world with our bodies, sweat, and prayers! This event is for ALL...men AND women are welcome!

Let’s dance to find solidarity in motion, for it is only together that we can change things.
    
Let’s dance for those who cannot rise, for those who are victims of violence, for all women, men, and children who are hurt by violence against women.

Let’s dance for the boys who can't cry and the girls who can't be angry.

Let’s dance for the places within us that long to heal, and for a new way to be in relationship with each other.

RISE UP and join us!

"When One Billion bodies rise and dance on 14 February 2013, we will join in solidarity, purpose and energy and shake the world into a new consciousness."
     ~ One Billion Rising


ONE BILLION RISING IS:
A global strike
An invitation to dance
A call to men and women to refuse to participate in the status quo until rape and rape culture ends
An act of solidarity, demonstrating to women the commonality of their struggles and their power in numbers
A refusal to accept violence against women and girls as a given
A new time and a new way of being

I went to the Smashburger in Novato & have to say that it was a disappointing experience. TheRead More burger was very mediocore & the onion rings were awful-very greasy. The staff were not friendly & operated with a "Bambi in the headlights" look about them. I do wish Smasburger luck in their locations. However, from my perspective there is a good deal of work that still needs to be done with the food, staff & service. At this time, "In & Out" Burger is a "hand's down favorite...thanks

Sheryl, I would put up our food and our service against any In & Out, anytime, any place. I'llRead More put my burger where my mouth is (literally) and offer you some free vouchers to be at our opening in Mill Valley. Send me an email (jasonwkent@gmail.com) with your mailing address and I'll get those vouchers to you ASAP.

Lisa says she doesn't yet know "how the plantings will yield. Could be six big loaves ofRead More homemade bread, could be many more, or fewer."

Who can live on that pay in Marin? Maybe someone who walks or bikes to work?
