Today is an important day for my new good friend [livejournal.com profile] mitjablazic . He was assaulted during Ljubljana Pride in June; 3 men go on trial for assaulting him today.

Slovenia is in many ways carving an unique path among the new EU member states. It continues to wrestle with the tensions between "traditional values" and "modern European values." People like Mitja are pushing things along--dangerous and brave work indeed. In the pursuit of social justice "we make the road by walking" as Paolo Freire and Myles Horton said.

Drop into his blog and offer him your support. I'm sure it'd mean a lot to him.

As an Eastern European, I'm very proud of him.

I'm amazed how much he's dealt with, and he still continues to fight. He's an amazing man!

Hey,
Is there any chance I could email you? I need to talk about something with someone who might be able to offer some insight.
