Tell Us Your Good Deed

Photographed and wrote a book about grandmothers all over the world who are creating a better world for grandchildren everywhere. One hundred percent of my author royalties go to the Stephen Lewis Foundation's Grandmothers to Grandmothers Campaign to benefit African grandmothers who are raising children orphaned by AIDS.

The No Evil Project is a creative way to engage others in examining and understanding how pernicious stereotypes can be. In my case, people are surprised to discover that this "grandmother" is energetic and professionally active; that "feminist" to me just means "working for equality;" and that this "philanthropist" is not a rich white man.
