Roberta Vandermeer now living in Port Alberni. Born in Amsterdam in 1951, raised in Australia from 1954 to 1968, living in bc since then. A transgender woman, poet musician, artist and activist working toward a better understanding for all of us who don't fit into the societal norm of male and female or colour. We are all human and learning is the only way to live peacefully with one another, not hating our differences but rejoicing in our diversities.
