========================================
From Shawn Aveningo: “I had the honor of participating in one of four 100k Poets for Change events in Sacramento, organized by Trina Drotar & Sandy Thomas (sponsored by Amber Moon Press), on Sept 30 at Shine Cafe, My daughters came home from college to enjoy the show and I thought I’d send you the link to the video they recorded of me reading my gay rights poem titled “A Mother’s Dream”, which was written for my daughters. I will be posting a few more videos of my others poems performed that day (All It Took, Human, and Empty) to my channel “The Poetr Box” in the coming days. (https://www.youtube.com/aveningo)
