Let no one tell you you can't be heard! Elizabeth is willing to share and embrace her life stories because after all, we're women, right? "The words may be different but what we share together is our collective experience as women." Elizabeth encourages you to share your words and thoughts through visual and poetic journaling. Elizabeth brings her years of self-discovery to all women, published in her celebrated, intimate and visual poetic journal, The Melancholy Girls. In addition, she has produced a short documentary, THE NO SHOW, which gives women a voice to say NO to things that no longer serve them in their life's voyage. The gift: FREEDOM to say YES to themselves.

 Currently the Director of Moody Me Workshops held in Austin, TX, Elizabeth continues to empower women of every age to embrace their unique creative self, artistically, with style and a whole lot of fun!

On Friday, Septembert 25th at 7pm we will discuss the novel My Stroke of Insight by Jill Bolte Taylor at the new off site venue for discussions, Progress Coffee at 500 San Marcos St., just east of IH35.

Start: 7:00 pm

An outpouring of memorial tributes and public expressions of grief followed the 1995 death of the Tejana recording artist Selena Quintanilla Prez. The Latina superstar was remembered and mourned in documentaries, magazines, Web sites, monuments, biographies, murals, look-alike contests, musicals, drag shows, and more.

Calling these and other acts of mourning the slain star Selenidad, Deborah Paredez explores their significance and the broader meanings of remembering Selena. She considers the performers career and emergence as a posthumous icon within political and cultural transformations in the United States during the 1990s, the decade that witnessed a Latin explosion in culture and commerce alongside a resurgence of anti-immigrant discourse and policy.
