Desiree Alliance 2008 Liveblog

The 2008 Desiree Alliance Conference starts today in Chicago! The Desiree Alliance conference is different from most academic, activist, or community conferences in that we screen all participants and close the conference to outside media. That doesn’t mean we won’t be making our own media. For participants who want to cover the conference by blogging, sharing photos or videos or audio online, by using Twitter or other online messaging services, or on social network sites, we’ve established some guidelines to maximize participation by everyone at the conference, so that everyone may feel free to speak without being spoken for. We want to collaborate in sharing our experience with those not in attendance, and to document our community from the inside.
