I need your vote!<\/a><\/p>\n

I also need your help.<\/p>\n

As I have mentioned before, I am shifting into a new stage of life. I am no longer teaching at an institution, instead I am advocating and writing about social justice full-time both as part of Independence Rock Group: Center for Faith, Ethics, and Social Justice and here at Approaching Justice.<\/p>\n

As a result of this shift, I need to network and branch out in a whole range of new directions. For this reason, I am competing for a scholarship that will allow me to attend the Netroots Nation Convention that will be meeting in San Jose this June. Netroots Nations is a leading gathering of Progressive bloggers and online activists.<\/p>\n

Here is where I need your help. In order to lock in one of the scholarships, I need to be one of the top 5 vote-getters among the different people who have applied for the scholarship.<\/p>\n

In the 36 hours since I submitted my application, I have moved from #101 to #37 in the rankings. Today, my goal is to move into top 30 by the end of the day. The voting ends on May 7th.<\/p>\n

This is where you come in!<\/p>\n

Please go and vote for me! <\/a>It only takes a few seconds.<\/p>\n

Once you have voted, please share either this post or my page at the Netroots contest<\/a> with your friends on Facebook, Twitter, or anywhere you would be so kind to do so. Every vote counts!<\/p>\n
