Cross posted on the African Women’s Blog

The first Carnival of African Women will be held on the African Women’s Blog on Monday October 9th. The Carnival is open to everyone registered on the African Women’s Blogs Aggregator and is a selection of posts on articles of interest to African women.

To participate in the premier Carnival, we are asking contributors to write a piece on Blogging and Identity and publish it on their blogs. Please feel free to interpret the topic as broadly as you wish - long, short, a poem, a piece of prose or photos. Once you have done that, please register the post at the Carnival Site or alternatively send an email to: info at blacklooks (dot) org with the URL of your post before the 6th of October. On 9th October we will publish a roundup of all submitted posts.

We hope that as many African women bloggers as possible will join in the Carnival. Even if you cannot write a piece please link to the site and join the webring. Thanks to everyone.
