I was close friends with Maria Teresa Tula, She stayed at my house in Seattle with son, Oscar when he was a baby. I went and saw her once in DC. Finding via this site she moved to MN. Would love to correspond with her. I imagine she does not write/use computer unless things have changed since I knew her. She did not speak much english in the 90's but perhaps that has changed too since she has been in the USA for longer now. More Spanish is better as I live in Mexico now. Can anyone put me in touch with her? She would remember me if you say Joey (female) and worked with a group of women in Seattle in the late 1980's and when she was on tour there she stayed with me.

Don't know if th...Hello Mara, Tim and Matthew,<br /><br />Don't know if this blog is still active but did you know that the Friend of CoMadres was started in Boston in 1986/87? We had a number of different chapters, sent delegations to El Salvador, "accompanied" them in there office and at the FEDEFAM conference, organized tours for their representatives in the United States-America Sosa (Gloria), and Maria Teresa Tula. If you want to see some of the history of the group, I donated my files to Northeastern University library and they are available as the Kelley Ready Archives.<br /><br />Is this Tim of CoCoDa by any chance? If it is, you know that Maria Teresa Tula is living in Minnesota. I am sure she would love to know of the existence of the Friends of CoMadres since she has been out of touch with the CoMadres for some years now. If Mara is interested in getting in contact with her, let me know and we can work it out.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07886154285369658919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9177745.post-64080760176536677782010-08-27T14:49:22.686-05:002010-08-27T14:49:22.686-05:00@ Mara or Tim: I set up the Comadre's website...@ Mara or Tim: I set up the Comadre's website but Alicia's health started to fail and we just never got it set up so that I could give them access to the occasional email I would get for them.

And what a surprise to find myself quoted in your post!! :) A lovely surprise! I have recently formed a fundraising/publicity organization in solidarity with the Co-Madres. It is called, "Friends of Co-Madres, USA." We are putting on a fundraiser house party tomorrow night in Brooklyn, NY to benefit Co-Madres. I am pleased that the event will be held the same night that they will hold the memorial service for Alicia in El Salvador. We will continue to put on fundraising events for Co-Madres. You don't happen to live in New York, do you?<br /><br />All the best,<br />Mara KomoskaMarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13981910270427702557noreply@blogger.com
