Blog Roundup for 8-26-07:

This entry marks the launch of a new feature here at writing evolution. Each blog roundup will offer a collection of blog articles pertaining to feminism, gender issues, GLBT rights, animal welfare and social activism. The linked articles will not necessarily reflect the views of this blog. Instead, the articles may fall on opposite ends of the spectrum, or cover various nuances of the same topic. The intention of this is to promote awareness--not only of views we share, but also of views that may oppose our own.
