A new video from the Enough project with Ryan Gosling and John Prendergast discussing genocide in Darfur and what you can do to help stop this crime against humanity.
1. Looking up from a fascinating lunch conversation to realize that I was sitting across from Amanda Marcotte, and then awkwardly expressing my girl crush
2. GIANT COOKIES!
3. Keith Ellison talking about twisty lightbulbs
4. 20 new facebook friends! (I mean... er... NETWORKING!)
5. My supersweet new totebag, and the "I *heart* pro-choice boys" ... and "I *heart* pro-choice girls" pins I got to go on it
We here at Campus Progress have been popular with a demographic that includes artists, grassroots activists, public policy majors, young wonks, and journalists. And our readership ranges from young college students to a slightly older age range that includes professors and professionals. We also take pride in reaching out to anyone and everyone who could take an interest in progressive politics. But I think all of us were pretty excited, and surprised, when we heard CosmoGirl did a blog post about the 2007 Campus Progress National Student Conference.
I'm thinking Speaker Pelosi was a draw for the magazine, aimed at young women, to do a write-up (if you missed her, or the conference, watch streaming video of the sessions here). Either way - we appreciate the shout-out, and hope CosmoGirl readers can look up to Speaker Pelosi as a great role model and use her as inspiration to make a difference in their communities by getting involved with grassroots organizing, journalism, and public policy. Plus, if they head over to Campus Progress, we've got Ryan Gosling too.
