Gender equity is the norm; the president of the Iraqi Canadian Society is a woman.

Famous quotes containing the words community and/or life:
“Fortunately art is a community effort—a small but select community living in a spiritualized world endeavoring to interpret the wars and the solitudes of the flesh.”

Open-eyed conspiracy
His time doth take.

Shake off slumber, and beware.
Awake, Awake!”
