Ella's Daughters in ColorLines

There is a profile of Ellas Daughters in the January-February 2008 edition of ColorLines.

In our second annual installment, ColorLines profiles a selection of people of color working for justice—and doing it with creativity, passion and humor. We feature among them an urban farmer who wants to feed the world, a journalist taking on racists with satire, a playwright whose monologue sears our collective memory with the experiences of Katrina survivors, and a team of organizers who pulled off an amazing feat of logistical coordination and political discipline to hold the first U.S. Social Forum. Read on for these stories of hope and patience, and enjoy.
