When I mention my interest in politics, I am constantly amused by the Monica Lewinsky remark that I am so often received with.
People seem threatened by the idea of a woman infiltrating the political system.
Despite this, I find my experiences in activism tremendously fulfilling and illuminating. Santa Monica College has presented me with a wide variety of strong women. They have offered me a support system that has been vital to my success. I highly value my relationships with women. When we are able to get transgress the competitive games that we seem to play, women can make significant connections both intellectually and spiritually.
