Re: [Downtown Dharma Listserve] Question about march next weekend

Thanks to both of you for your thoughtful replies and for the information. I"m afraid I"m not willing to risk my safety for this one, though I certainly respect your right (or anyone else's) to do so. I know this is different, but the day after the inauguration, I was part of a Buddhist group marching in silence, and it was very powerful. metta to all,Joan Joan MooneyWriter/editorjoanhmooney@gmail.comwww.linkedin.com/in/joanmooneyMember,...

I will be there and would be happy to meet up with folks - it will be as safe as possible, but always good to be in a group. If...
