Wednesday, October 14, at 7:00 PM (PDT) your hosts Christene Kings and Melissa Chiprin brought you another fiercely independent edition of Feminist Magazine.

We had a conversation about October 22 Coalition 14th Annual National Day of Protest to Stop Police Brutality, Repression, and the Criminalization of a Generation with DJ Tiah Star, and Kelly Flor both organizers of October 22 coalition.  Also, we were honored to be joined by Mrs Rivera, and  Antonia Rivera, mother and sister respecitvely  of  17 yrs old Carlos Rivera, killed by the LAPD May 17, 2008.

And, meet young feminist blogger Julie Z., creator of Fbomb blog.  The FBomb.org is a blog/community created for teenage girls who care about their rights as women and want to be heard.   The FBomb.org is loud, proud, sarcastic…everything  many teenage feminists are today.

But, first six domestic violence shelters in California have been forced to close while dozens more are scaling back services after Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger eliminated 100 percent of all state funding for domestic violence programs/shelters.  Joining us as part of October’s Domestic Violence Awareness and to discuss the affects of these outrageous cuts was TuLynn Smylie executive director of WomenShelter of Long Beach , an organization committed to helping end the cycle of domestic violence through education, intervention and prevention.
