Last month I saw a community snap to action unlike anything I’d even seen before. A HyVee manager had made the decision to remove this publication from their East Washington store after our January/February Love issue. We had been distributing there for two years. He ol claimed he’d gotten complaints, but never given any details on what they were about. When the news hit Madison’s LGBT&XYZ Magazine Facebook, I saw floodgates open with e-mails and posts Patrick Farabaugh to HyVee Corporate. The Facebook status reporting the news was shared a Publisher / Editor-in-Chief couple hundred times. Because of your action, HyVee very quickly reversed Emily Mills course and store management contacted me to welcome the magazine back. Editor I am also thrilled to report that beginning in our next issue Congressman 28 Kelly Murray Copy Editor Mark Pocan has accepted our offer to write an occasional column about no experience necessary.

Poem: Armando Romero
“For a Better World” 2010 Poems and Drawings on Peace and Justice by Greater Cincinnati Artists Editor: Saad Ghosn “Yes, we have in this country, dominated by corporate wealth and military power and two antiquated political parties, what a fearful conservative characterized as“a permanent adversarial culture” challenging the present, demanding a new future. It is a race in which we can all choose to participate, or just to watch. But we should know that our choice will help determine the outcome.” from “A People’s History of The United States” “The artist thinks, acts, performs music, and writes outside the framework that society has created. The artist may do no more than give us beauty, laughter, passion, surprise, and drama. I don’t mean to minimize these activities by saying the artist can do no more than this. The artist needn’t apologize, because by doing this, the artist is telling us what the world should be like, even if it isn’t that way now. The artist is taking us away from the moments of horror that we experience every day - some days more than others - by showing us what is possible. But the artist can and should do more. In addition to creating works of art, the artist is also a citizen and a human being.” from “Artists in Times of War” by HOWARD ZINN (1922 - 2010) Published in 2010 by Ghosn Publishing ISBN 978-0-9823159-3-4 Foreword Whether they use words, images or music,... artists are not only witnesses but also changers of the world. -
