I’m still here, hanging out in the station, holding my seat, obstinately refusing to release myself from this self-inflicted calling. I know there are greener pastures out there, but those places don’t need me.
I found prophetesses among these blogger women and was invited to kick off my muddy boots and to warm myself by the fire of their unconditional love.
I know that these women are Exponent II’s Founding Mothers, but to me they were my mothers.
I feel the collective support of this community of friends and sisters buoying me up with their silent strength.
Thanks to the support from people I met who were connected to Exponent II, I now find myself on the other side of those challenges, still whole, and facing new challenges. That is such a gift.
When the first woman called me sister, I cried, so happy to see something I thought could never happen.
This is a publication that will last.
We now have all issues digitized at BYU.
Is She not a woman
and a sister?
She Is.
A project that is now titled FIFTY YEARS OF EXPONENT II and is being published this fall by Signature Books.
Exponent II provides feminist forums for women and gender minorities across the Mormon spectrum to share their diverse life experiences in an atmosphere of trust and acceptance. Through these exchanges, we strive to create a community to better understand and support each other.
