Dear Sharon,

Thank you for your emails, especially the last ones adding clarification to Karen and Tanya's posts. So many women have left in disgust and disappointment, not even bothering to say good-bye because they feel no one cares or is actually listening anyway. Comments from Bruce only underscore that feeling.

Yet -- many of us are still here, not wanting to leave the dream, AND not wanting to support a process that is not transparent and not in alignment. Thanks to those of you who are speaking about this, and my encouragement to others to please stay connected and consider speaking up. Your silence can be interpreted as endorsement, which I know is not accurate for many.

Your wisdom is needed for Sophia, as you can see. Otherwise the dream is becoming a tribute to power, patriarchy and hierarchy.

Holding hope,

Ann
