2nd post from Tampa

This is my 2nd post on the NOW conference. Today was the national board meeting. Full agenda,  committe reports, PAC report, membership is growing. Had a very good racism training. Discussion around how NOW can engage women of color and bring more WOC into the feminist movement. 

The conference is going to be extremely well attended. Over 600 pre-registered and ususally up to 100 to 150 show up for on site registration.  Lots of great workshops and a protest at Sen Rubio's office Friday morning. Sue from  Iowa City is here and she is excited about jump-starting the chapter.

great weather, Tampa is awesome.
