The show began today with
Announcements

followed by
Commentary by Elaine B. Holtz and then her featured Guests:

The Sonoma County Independent Office of Law Enforcement and Outreach (IOLERO) is assisited by the Community Advisory Committee in the handling of complaints against the Sheriff’s Office.  A recent CAC disagreement with the Director met with the dismissal of the Committee President Alicia Ramon by the Director of IOLERO, Jerry Threet, causing distrust to arise among those advocating for better community relations with the Sheriff. Elaine reads remarks that she made at the IOLERO-CAC meeting last Monday 4/3/17. IOLERO and its CAC were set up by the County in response to the Sonoma County Sheriff Deputy killing of an unarmed 13-year old boy Andy Lopez, on which many shows of Women Spaces have dealt with in interviews.

You Have a Mandate by Sharon Maser Danaceau (1943-2015)

unite women, women in art, women's rights, Women's Spaces

A frequent guest on Women’s Spaces, Sharon Maser Danaceau, passed away on February 18, 2015 in Santa Rosa, California.

Sharon Maser, Founder, Women’s School

Sharon Maser Danaceau (1943-2015) left this as her last testimony for Women:

You Have a Mandate

As a woman, you have a Mandate.
It is to bring forth life
and nurture and support it.
Simple and stra1ght forward.

As a woman, you have it: A Mandate to create and protect life.
What more do you need?

It’s not so easy though.
It requires self-awareness
and bravery
to go against the huge destructive wave.
The tsunami of annihilation.

Why women?
Why are women given this mandate, this leadership –
The tender and gentlest of all,
The least war-like?
Think about it

Because that is exactly who we are.
Not threatening.
Not combative
Comforting.
Attractive.

And we are everywhere
Because of our relationships
We all have them.
And we go everywhere.
We teach; we model; we lead.

Relationships are about the heart
About things that bind us
Empathy. Compassion. Connection.

It is our soft loving way
And it works really well.

by Sharon Maser Danaceau (1943-2015)
