1.   We, Elaine B. Holtz and Kenneth E. Norton, interview ourselves as the Producers of the Women’s Spaces Show to reveal a bit more about about what motivates us in putting the show together.  As an exception to featuring only women guests  on Women’s Spaces and starting a tradition on this last show of the year, Elaine interviews Ken and then Ken Elaine about our backgrounds, challenges and inspirations on our life journey apart and together. Like the Yin and Yang symbol, there is a mix of our lives in this show.  Since Elaine is the voice of Women’s Spaces we will provide a bit more time in the interview of Ken, whose voice on the show has been confined to “Good Morning,” until today.  Ken provides the technical expertise for the broadcast, the archiving of the shows on this website, and collaboration on producing the show with the “still small voice” of conscience in mind.  Ken was especially influenced by his mentor William Hermanns, and recounts his first meeting with him.  Ken also shares his mentor’s Ten Words to the Creative Spirit that for him act as his Soul’s operations panel, and Ken feels that no Soul should be without these Ten Words, and no Soulcraft without these ten functions.  Elaine recounts some experiences that gave her the courage to voice her concerns on women and peace issues that eventually led to her radio show.

1. Dr. Harriet Fraad, Psychothrerapist, Author,  Feminist

1.   Dr. Harriet Fraad talks of her early involvement in the Women’s Movement in the Sixties and its transformation over 50 years.  The Me,too activism since the recent Harvey Weinstein accusations, bolstered by a sitting President who was called out for his sexual predation during the 2016 Campaign, and engulfing established men in powerful leadership positions in entertainment, major media news, sports and other industries, including churches, prompted Dr. Fraad to write an essay Sexual Assault, Gender and Capitalism, which she discusses with Elaine.  Harriet describes what is fueling the current trend of women to raise children alone, and how boys are raised to be men with very limited avenues of emotional expression like sex and violence, such that the men’s fury of unmet needs are projected onto women rejecting sex.  Harriet encourages cooperation to replace competition, and change top-down corporate structure to co-operatives.

About our Guest:  Harriet Fraad, Ed.D, is a psychotherapist and hypnotherapist in private practice in New York City. She is a founding member of the feminist movement and the journal Rethinking Marxism. For 40 years, she has been a radical committed to transforming US personal and political life. She writes regularly for Truthout, and journals such as Tikkun, and The Journal of Psychohistory. Her latest book written with Richard Wolff and Stephen Resnick is Class Struggle on the Home Front (Palgrave 2009). She writes a blog called Economy and Society with Richard D. Wolff that appears on her website, harrietfraad.com, and the website of Richard Wolff, RDWolff.com. Her newest publication is an essay written with Tess Fraad-Wolff, Imagine Personal and Sexual Life Under Socialism which appears in the forthcoming book Imagine Socialism in the USA (Harper Collins, 2013).

2. & 3.  Christine Castillo and Catelin Quinn talk about their paths leading them to work at Verity, helping female and male victims of abuse.  Christine has worked for the organization when it was called United Against Sexual Assault and led a rebranding and focus on the mission of Verity working in cooperation with the community:  Verity facilitates healing and promotes the prevention of violence by providing counseling, advocacy, intervention, and education in our community. Caetlin joined Verity and speaks with the passion of a “Me, too” Wounded Healer, as she shares her story of abuse at Sonoma State University, where this abuser of multipler women students was shielded by the Professors and Administration and allowed to graduate with enough recommendations to enter Harvard Law School. The Verity 24×7 Crisis Hotline and counseling are strictly confidential.  Since those younger than 18 years old are in guardianship and the law mandates reporting, Verity first informs the youth not to give any identifiers before counseling them.on the phone and lets clients know if a next step would require breaking the confidentiality to allow free choice in the decision.

About our Guest: Christine Castillo is the Executive Director for Verity earned her Bachelor’s Degree in psychology from Sonoma State University, with external work for her Master’s Degree in psychology. Chris has over 35 years of experience with nonprofit organizations in Sonoma County, working with diverse populations and cultures. She is committed to eliminating myths and stereotypes surrounding sexual assault and bringing our community together to become better informed, educated and able to speak out against sexual abuse. Chris will continue to pursue her passion for community collaboration.

About our Guest: Catelin Quinn is the communications coordinator: for Verity. She graduated from the University of California, Berkeley, in 2015, where she earned her Bachelor’s Degree in Political Science and a minor in public policy. While studying at Cal, she was involved with the student organizing, government affairs, and nonprofit work for a variety of progressive causes in the Bay Area and Washington, D.C. After a year of getting reacquainted with what Sonoma County has to offer, Caitlin decided she wanted to do meaningful work in the community where she grew up, and joined the Verity team in July 2016.
