Men Speak Out

Much Respect~!!!
Today, July 9 at 7pm (PST) join your hosts Christene Kings and Melissa Chiprin for another fiercely independent edition of Feminist Magazine.

First meet the “Hoop Girls,” just fresh from their rave review run at CASA 0101 in Boyle Heights. The play that asks ….

Which Hoop Are You?
Hoop Girls Will Break It Down. From baby's first hoops, to the angst-ridden teen's brazen 4 inch hoops, to the 3 inch "household hoops"-filled with memories, hoop earrings are symbols of the stages of womanhood and how we are all wonderfully connected.

Joining us from the ensemble cast is Jesse Bliss, Julie Evans, Ramona Gonzales, Esperanza Ibarra, Karla Menjivar, Miriam Moses and writer/co-producer Gabriela Lopez.


Later, Marina Wood, Erin Nakamura, Erin Hale, and Alaina Chamberlain from Women’s Studies Student Association, (WSSA), at CSULB who are devoted to the empowerment of women through education and the development of the feminist identity. Will be featuring a workshop they presented at the L.A. Social Forum. “It Takes A Village To Rape A Woman,” which explores the link between masculinities and violence against women. Framing violence against women as a men's issue and provide possible solutions.

And, Cyn Da’ Poet- Cyn stretches her talent not only as poet and performer but, also as organizer and host of events that allow others to showcase their work. She is currently working on her first book, and is experimenting with incorporating music into her poems in hopes of developing a new genre. Tonight Cyn will be talking about her upcoming event “Evolucion De Culturas.”
