Comment by Gavin Andrew on November 22, 2009 at 5:16pm: Hi Ed,

It'll be great to see both you and Don at Magick Happens.

Just in case my email to you didn't come through, I'll be quite happy to be interviewed by you either during the event or over the course of the Parliament - it'd be a distinct pleasure to do an interview for once that goes beyond the “So what do Pagans believe?” and “So this isn’t devil-worship?” type questions that I get from mainstream media here.

It may surprise many of your Witch School members to know that in Melbourne, the host city for the Parliament, witchcraft and associated practices such as divination were still *illegal* as recently as five years ago. They were outdated, archaic laws, but their presence had all kinds of implications - equal opportunity employment, marriages between Pagans, hate-speech, etc. In terms of community development, having such a strong presence at this Parliament (and events like Magick Happens and Cirque Noir to coincide with it) is an extraordinary evolution from where we were not so long ago.

Comment by Witch School on November 21, 2009 at 11:43am: Don and I will be making it out to this event, if Goddess willing. We will be simply participants.
