The public is invited to El Charro on the north side (Oracle) this Saturday, October 26 from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m. to bid Bon Voyage to the Arizona Daily Independent’s editor, Lisa ‘Artgal’ Ruth. Ruth is relocating to Oregon to oversee Northwest expansion of the American Daily Independent News Network.
Ruth will continue her work with the Arizona Daily Independent, and take hands on control of the Oregon Daily Independent.
“It is an exciting time for ADI, and though Arizona has been my home for seven years and has a special place in my heart, it is time for another journey,” said Ruth. “I am excited to see the Oregon Daily Independent grow and have an impact, and I will be staying in tune with what’s happening in Arizona since this is truly the frontline on so many issues in our country. It was a blessing to be part of so many campaigns in this state, particularly in Tucson, and to have the opportunity to be very active at such a critical time and see so much first hand regarding Ethnic Studies, the border issues, Common Core and the list goes on. Now, I’m being drawn into a different place; it’s as though God is kicking me out of Arizona – for now, anyway – and wanting me to cause trouble elsewhere for a while. That can only be a good thing.”
