      Are you (or your distributor) contacting feminist and/or LGBTQ book stores? I think these books would be a great fit, especially for Atlanta's Charis Books and More.

      Sooo close to the 19,200 they needed for the video! Do you think they can still get it and make the video ... or cut costs somehow?

      Thank you so much for starting this project Bear. It's super inspiring and a real pleasure to be a supporter. Your book will be promoted and used by many people at the Centre for Gender Advocacy in beautiful Montreal.

      Thank you for creating these books, and to everyone who has pledged their support. I hope that books like these will help create safer spaces that echo forward to a place where gender-motivated violence ends. Yeah, I'm optimistic. <3 Sending it forward.

Connected as S. Bear Bergman (3042 friends)

S. Bear Bergman is a storyteller, a theater artist, an instigator, a gender-jammer, and a good example of what happens when you overeducate a contrarian. He is the author of three books for grownups, four solo shows, a couple dozen book chapters, and many, many silly toddler songs.
