Colleagues:
Last Friday, May 14th, I posted a message to NIFL lists titled "Literacy 
President." Literacy President is a collaborative, non-partisan initiative 
supported by Voice for Adult Literacy United for Education (VALUE), The Change 
Agent, and other groups designed to:

- raise national awareness of adult literacy regardless of who is elected;
- ask Presidential candidates broad questions about adult literacy; and
- engage adult learners and practitioners around contextualized teaching and 
learning on civic education and learner leadership using the EFF Citizen Role 
Map and EFF Content Standards.

It has been called to my attention that although the post I made (as a private 
citizen) for the group was permissible based on all lists' guidelines, it was 
also of a politically-sensitive nature and some feel it may not be appropriate 
for NIFL lists. My intention was to alert teachers about an exciting new 
project. If my post has caused any confusion, I apologize.

Jackie
