At the regular second-Sunday-of-the-month WAND meeting on Sept. 9, Pat Gurin will speak on "Solidarity Among Women, and Political Action." Gurin is a professor of Psychology and Women's Studies at the U-M and the co-editor of "Women, Change and Politics." She believes that "Women can't depend on our common experiences to give us a unified political stance. Women have to struggle to make the connections between all the political problems in the world." Her talk is the first of a series of WAND presentations called "Making the Connections ." The meeting begins at 7:30 pm at St. Aidan's Northside Church, 1679 Broadway (across from the Baits Drive entrance to North Campus.)

WAND's goals are to educate ourselves and the public about the dangers of the nuclear arms build-up (which the U.S. continues to escalate despite the end of the Cold War), to influence our congressional representatives by informed lobbying, to support peace and justice candidates, and to empower people, especially women, personally and politically.

Meetings are held the second Sunday of the month (usually at 7:30 pm) at St. Aidan's Northside Church, 1679 Broadway, Ann Arbor.
