Hello ... would there be any problem in my posting a thread on World's End about

International Blog Against Racism Week ?

It's running Aug. 6-12 this year.

This is an effort that a bunch of us over on LiveJournal are working to organize: basically, people give the subject a shout-out one or more times in their blogs during the week, use special usericons during that time to daw attention to the effort, and so on.

Last year's went quite well, with a couple of hundred posts collected on the subject of racism in the fandom community and in the larger world, how it affects people, what others have done in their various communities to combat it, etc.

I hope that this would not be considered spamming.

You are a Confectioner. Who can take a sunrise and sprinkle it with dew? Actually, that's Bob The Enchanter, two doors down on the left. But you make delectable treats, which is no simple feat considering Oompa Loompas won't be invented for three centuries. Not only do you delight with your sweets, but you've paved the way for a new profession: dentistry!

So long as all you're selling is charity, g'head.

(Forgot to say thanks, Dweller ... sorry, I'm doing too much at once. We're leaving for vacation at the end of the week, too.)

As a long term poster, who is only selling charity...that sounds fine by me.

we have allowed this before (from another long term poster and for a charity) and your charity is legitimate.
