This is a radio interview that I did along with others who belong to a new taskforce in my town. It's only 22 minutes long and I think worth the listen. Everything we talk about applies to your town too. - Suz
From the Jefferson Public Radio page:
A sexual assault incident in Ashland a few months ago spurred social worker Alaya Ketani into action. She formed a new organization, KAWS, for Keeping Ashland Women Safe.
The organization is brand-new, having held its first public meeting in the middle of May.
But it has already built connections in the community, including with Ashland Police.
KAWS members Lila Harding and Suzanne Mathis McQueen join us in the studio with Police Chief Tighe O'Meara.

What I did not consciously know then but recognize now is that I refused to override the perfect balance of Original Design with baptism into Patriarchy, the most dangerous imbalance our world has known.
