Hosted by Ariana Manov and Lynn Harris Ballen : So-called “Women’s issues” are front and center now, and it seems like Patriarchy ain’t what it used to be –or is it? Are we gonna be thrown under the bus after the silly season of elections is over?
Get into the conversation with our guests: Dr. Caroline Heldman, Assistant Professor at Occidental College in Los Angeles, specializing in the presidency, race, and gender. She’s a commentator for Fox News and Al Jazeera and co-edited “Rethinking Madame President: Are We Ready for a Woman in the White House?” And Jollene Levid – National Chairperson of the Association of Filipinas and Feminists Fighting Imperialism, Re-feudalization and Marginalization (AF3IRM). They both have a lot to say about what’s at stake beyond November 6th, what this is costing us, and what we can do about it.
AND we’re opening the phones for you to share questions and comments at (818) 985-5735. Or send us your questions via our Facebook page or Twitter!
Tuesday afternoon at 3:00 PDT. We’ll take your calls and tweets after 3:30pm.
THIS is what feminism sounds like!
