<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:Palatino" lang="EN-US">Chani Nicholas’s astrology app for iPhone is oriented to activist politics, queer identity issues and feminism. Nicholas is influential in 4<sup>th</sup> wave feminism. My grad students love

easy to calculate your own chart in light of the Age of Aquarius.<u></u><u></u></span></p>
