		<description>I&#039;m truly excited by this opportunity to conduct a Town Hall forum with Project Blog!!!

There&#039;s a host of enviro-advocates and EJ groups operating in MN. From grassroots to national projects - from the Green Institute to the Wind Farms in SW - with funding - this project can criss-cross our fair state.

I&#039;m a community activist and person living with disability, a parent and African American.

I wish to stress  potential partners / persons to include in this endeavor: 
*K-12 educators/schools as well as Universities; 
*Libraries (low-income, &#039;cyber cafes&#039;); *Philanthropists committed to bridging the divide;
*Community based orgs representing: indigenous, people of color and persons with disabilities
*Farm, Union and Service sector employees/ers

Opportunities abound for Companion peices like on-demand cirriculum programs for K-12 and HS and College level blogosphere-video competitions! Our largest minority group is those living with disabilities. Many of which combat isolation through the use of the internet. And with population 2010 on the horizon - seniors more often than not, will straddle these groups. 

I am committed to making sure all have a place at the table - and our best assets are driven by honoring ideals that include us all.
