Dear Sally Gabb,
     I would dearly love to participate in the COABE roundtable on racism at 
your upcoming conference, but I am not able to do so.  If you see Peter 
Waite, Mark Cass or Jane Hugo of Laubach Literacy (now ProLiteracy), please 
ask them to tell you about how they (and we) have been raising issues of race 
and racism within the literacy community.  It's quite a journey!
     We will be holding a 1-1/2 day preconference on "literacy and racism" in 
May/June at the LLA/LVA national conference.  If you could spread the word 
among COABE members, that would be great!  Preconference is May 28/29. Thank 
you!
     Margery
