Denise, I saw your comments on Lukumí. In merging Lucumí, I think most of the article is now actually about the religion instead of the animal rights "debate". However, your comments suggest you know a bit more than I do on the subject and the community would greatly benefit from your input. Go ahead and edit the article yourself. As we say around here, be bold! -- Chris 20:27, 24 August 2005 (UTC)

Just saw your response Chris. Have not been checking in - I have a break coming up in two weeks, for about a month and will edit the article ASAP. Denise

Hi, welcome, I saw your comments on Talk:Young Lords: very glad to have someone here who should be considerably more knowledgable on this than me! I'd really love to see a good article there. If I can be of any assistance, just ask.

[edit] Your 1971 pamphlet

Dear Mrs. Oliver-Velez

One of my hobbies is uploading old radical pamphlets onto the free online library archive.org. According to worldcat, which is an index to all the lbrary catalogs in the world (not really, but thats what they are aiming for) there were three pamphlets published by the young lords, one of them, the Ideology of the Young Lords, i've already uploaded; one a collection of resolutions of their 2nd Party congress, and one about the Young Lords stance on women, written by yourself.

The worldcat entry says your pamphlet was 7ps and was titled When you look to any group to find out who's the most oppressed, it's always gonna be the women. While i havn't found anything with that precise title online, I have a feeling it could be the pdf on the below link:

Or perhaps one of the pdfs on this site

Could you please tell me if one of these pdfs is your pamphlet and, if so, may I please have permission to upload the pamphlet onto archive.org?

Sincerely, Jonathan

PS You wouldn't happen to know where I could find a copy of Resolutions and speeches of the 1972 young Lords Congress would you?
