In every era there are people who are othered, silenced or scapegoated. The details change, but the pattern remains. And that's why telling Moll Dyer's story is not just about folklore, its about empathy. It's about remembering Moll Dyer and saying firmly - "We will not forget the women history tried to burn, bury, or freeze out of existence."

We're talking about witchy women, magic and spooky stuff this month... Marie Laveau made my list because I feel like the mysticism around this Voodoo Queen more than qualified her. I scratched the surface and shared with you what I found... but there is so much more to find out about and admire in this woman who was a loved and respected leader, a successful businesswoman, and a caretaker of her community.

We're going into Spooky-Season this month and talking about women who were Witches. Join me (if you dare!) to hear about Isobel Gowdie this week.... instead of exclaiming her innocence and begging for mercy, Isobel proudly admitted to her witchiness by weaving elaborate confessions and beautifully lyrical incantations.

Join me this week to learn about Elizabeth Fry. She was a Quaker, a reformer, and someone who used her own voice to challenge cruelty, confront injustice, and to demand that society look at its most forgotten people not as criminals, but as human beings first.

Today we're celebrating the POWERFUL VOICE of Flo Kennedy, a woman who called herself "the loudest mouth on the block." She was one of the original "rage baiters" who knew that in order to get people to listen, sometimes you had to make them uncomfortable.

Join me this week to hear about a woman whose voice was calm, persuasive, and was so deeply powerful that it helped reshape the course of Australia's history. Faith was quoted as saying "If you can't change the world, change your street."

We're talking about women who had POWERFUL VOICES this month... and Lucy Parsons starts us off. Lucy was a labor organizer, a writer and a gifted orator who poured everything she had into her beliefs. MANY have downplayed her contributions to the labor movement by referring to her as "Albert Parsons' wife"... but she was so much more than that.
