  • i don't guess there's ever a bad time to address racism so I appreciate your mentioning it here. Unfortunately you don't have to scratch very hard at the surface of any white family in Canada--my own included--to uncover racism.

  • Ivan, You are my hero. Peace Mickey

  • you've checked out Ivan's website, yes? (ivanecoyote dot com). Thanks for commenting.

  • Mine too. You can tell from the stories Ivan's family is far from perfect (and racism is obviously far, far from it). But I'd hesitate to condemn Ivan because of it - in some ways we are our families, but not in every way.

  • Ivan Coyote is a queer hero and icon, and one of my favorite artists. Ivan has that rare and sublime artistic ability, like Charlie Chaplin, to make us laugh and cry at the same moment.

    When I met Ivan some years ago I noticed some people referred to Ivan in the feminine pronoun and some in the masculine. When I asked Ivan for his/her personal preference Ivan replied, "Whatever you are comfortable with."

  • @johnnydtractive or in the US. my mom is less racist than my grandmother, and i like to think i'm less racist than either of them, but it's hardly a non-issue.

  • I would like to watch the entire talk. It is very interesting and educational for me.

  • This is great! Sooo... where's the rest of the routine. Any chance you could post the rest of it?

  • This is great! Sooo... where's the rest of the routine.

  • I just came back from a week of writing at a youth book camp; and she was our group mentor. She was so amazing, supportive and inspirational!

  • I don't think I can ever forgive my mom for not letting me go to hir reading in march

  • But laid bare for everyone to see, the purpsose might be to show the pain and the humor in the quandry of human diachotomy.

  • What irony...

  • Ivan rocks. I can't wait to see hir at Toronto Pride.
