Cohousing-L Mailing List: Cohousing and promoting a human rights ?

[Fred H Olson (fholson]

The Resource Center of the Americas ( http://www.americas.org ) is an
organization here in Minneapolis that publishes (paper, email and www) a
good calendar of events seen by a large number of local activist type
folks. I'd like to announce the upcoming Celebration of Ten Years of
Cohousing in the Twin Cities 11/4/00, ( see http://www.jimn.org/tccn )
in their newsletter etc.
 
They do say that:
 
   We reserve [events listing] for nonprofit organizations that support
   our mission-developing and promoting a human rights response to
   globalization.
 
Tho cohousing does not directly support this mission I think it is
generally compatible and may support this mission indirectly.  I think an
announcement should be relevant somehow.  Anyone think of a rationale?

The range of events they do list can be seen by following the "Community"
link on their web site.  I have not approached them yet - wanted to think
the mission question thru a bit first.
