<div>Many of you have contributed to previous GoFundMe projects of The Digger Archives. This is another fundraising plea to help preserve our tribe's history. Jesse Cox is a people's historian of the most authentic variety. Jesse's writings are a cross between a geographer's intimate association with the landscape and the be-bop prosy of a Jack Kerouac. We hope to eventually share his stories of our communal past, stories of one of the first communes on Castro Street, stories of the Hearthshire Community in northern California, and -- the aim of this GoFundMe -- the stories of Assunta Femia, the progenitor of a transgressive gay feminine spirituality.

<div>Jesse is 72 years old and he is struggling with the age-old dilemmas of physical and economic limitations. Jesse still is moonlighting gigs while pursuing a passion for finishing his deep history of Assunta, once Jesse's love and guiding spirit. Assunta was both shaman and prophetess. Her legacy must be preserved and Jesse is the best person to do it. Read the memorial that Arthur Evans wrote after Assunta's passing in 2006: <a href="https://bit.ly/arthur-evans-obit-for-Assunta-Femia" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><a href="https://bit.ly/arthur-evans-obit-for-Assunta-Femia" target="_blank" class="" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">https://bit.ly/arthur-evans-obit-for-Assunta-Femia</a></a>.

</div>
<div>There will be much more shared in the coming days and weeks as we grow this fund. Jesse has his fingers in many pies but Assunta is top of the list.

<div>Thank you, all and everyone!
