This was a peace walk organized by Donna McCabe as part of a Master of Fine Arts at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute. Although the walk took place in 1996, I have left up the relevant information about both Barbara Deming and the walk. This project has been an ongoing experiment for me, an experiment in simple living, in political writing, and discovering the relevance of mentors. Barbara Deming was dead for some 10 years before I ever heard of her, yet her life has had a profound influence on my own.

If you knew Barbara Deming and would like to share a story about her, please send it to me and if you give me permission, I'll put it up here. There is no "official" Barbara Deming web site - this is as close as you get. There are so many other wonderful women who were associated with Barbara - I'd like to know you if you were one of them. In the future I'll be putting in some pages on some of the women I have already met - other women who put their power words into powerful action.
