Feminist Historiography, Journalism History, and the Problem of Human Agency
I have posted pdf files of my
dissertation, "Feminist Historiography, Journalism History, and the
Problem of Human Agency," on my .Mac website. I completed this in
1994. Although it is somewhat outdated, particularly in its discussion of
various theoretical versions of feminism, as well as its discussion of the state
of journalism historiography, much of it is still
relevant.
Abstract below.

Here's to Lands' End: Thank you!
I finally found some good winter gear
online that could actually work to enable me to continue biking in the winter.
Lands' End has them.

Notice to sporting goods stores: large women enjoy the outdoors, too!
Trying to find clothing that will enable
me to continue bike riding, even in the cold. No luck. Sporting goods stores
assume only small women enjoy the outdoors.

jewelry store "Where she gets into trouble, and he gets out of
it."

Silence Speaks...
I came across this website a few years
ago. I can't remember how. But I was enormously impressed by it, and by the kind
of work being done by this organization with victims of violence. I encourage
people to go to this website and view the digital stories told here by the
victims themselves. Though they deal with horrible experiences, they nonetheless
represent great hope and the powerful healing possibilities inherent in telling
your own story in a creative way.

The Bush Dis-Information Machine Strikes Again
From the MisInformation
Clearinghouse: ALERT! Over the past few years, vital data has been
deleted, buried, distorted, or has otherwise gone missing from government
websites and publications. The National Council for Research on Women has begun
to document how these changes and exclusions affect women's lives in a new
report
, entitled MISSING: Information About
Women's Lives. See also this Salon.com

About The Author
My name is Georgia NeSmith. "Random Acts of Love" is my weblog, but I have numerous other websites you can link to through this blog. "Random Acts of Love" began in February, 2004, and I have been posting to it fairly steadily ever since, although there are a few months when illness and other issues have kept me away. I write about nearly everything under the sun. I also do a lot of photography and digital art and I teach journalism online. Recently I've also started posting videos to YouTube.
When I am not doing that, I am trouble-shooting Mac computer issues. Oh, yeah. I also do a lot of community activism. (Can anyone say ADD? I call it AEG -- "attention excess gift.")
I hope you enjoy reading what you find here, and that you will respond to the things you like (and argue with me over things you don't!). You can e-mail me directly from the "Feedback" link that is included with every post.
This weblog is provided free of charge. However, if you like what you read here and want to ensure that it stays online, you can make a donation through PayPal below. Or you can go to my giftshop at CafePress.com and purchase my greeting cards, post cards, pillows, mugs, and soon posters and prints.
You can also read samples of my creative work and see my photography and artwork on my creative website.

And never stops at all..."
