SEPTEMBER 1990
WOMEN AND HIV/AIDS, bySunshineSchillings
Even though some women still question whether HIVI AIDS is a relevant issue
for them, at the 6th International Conference on AIDS, the lack of attention to
women and AIDS was a major topic of
discussion by women both in the conference and among activists in the streets
outside.
HIV/AIDS is a women's issue because
women are infected. Women are the
fastest growing group with HIV infections. Worldwide, 2 million of the 6
million persons with HIV are women.
The World Health Organization projects
that by the end of 1992, over 350,000
women will have developed AIDS- more
than the total of AIDS cases reported to
WHO during the first decade of the
epidemic. In the United States, 13,667
women are reported with AIDS making
up 10% of the total 136,204 reported
cases. Women with AIDS die faster than
men. According to Patricia Kloser of the
University of Medicine and Dentistry of
New Jersey, a woman with AIDS lives an
average of 15.5 weeks following diagnosis.
In Oklahoma, while it has been rumored
that no women have died with AIDS,
women are infected and deaths have
occurred. Of 638 AIDS cases in Oklahoma, 38 are women. Of the 612 cases of
HIV infection reported in Oklahoma
since 1988, 68 are women.
HIV/AIDS is a women's issue because
women are affected. Women are often the
primary caregivers for men and children
with HIV I AIDS. Women are the mothers,
sisters, aunts, grandmothers, daughters
and lovers of persons with HIV/AIDS.
Women are professional caregiversnurses, social workers, educators-providing services to persons with AIDS and
people at risk.
HIV/AIDS is a women's issue because
women care about their community.
People with AIDS are our neighbors,
friends, and co-workers. We meet PWAs
in our churches, social organizations, and
the bars. The gay community has lost
many leaders to the AIDS epidemic.
HIV/AIDS is a women's issue because
HIV/AIDS is a children's issue. Women

give birth to children and are their primary
custodians. In that role, women have the
responsibility of teaching their children
about the i.langers and how to reduce their
risk for HIV infection. There is a significantTisk of HIV infection for adolescents.
In Oklahoma, high rates of teen pregnancy, drug abuse, and runaway/throwaway increase the risks for adolescents.
Oklahoma is one of the few states to
mandate AIDS education in the schools,
yet there is little evidence that this education is happening consistently throughout
the state.
HIVI AIDS is a women's issue because it
is an issue for women of color. Women of
color have higher rates of HIV infection.
Of women with AIDS in the United
States, 52% are African-American, 27%
white, 20% Hispanic, 0.6% Asian and
0.24% Native American. Of the 185
Native Americans with AIDS in the United
States, 22 are in Oklahoma. The racism
faced by women of color increases their
vulnerability. Women of color historically
have experienced problems accessing
health care. Few culturally sensitive, language appropriate educational materials
are available.
HIV/AIDS is a women's issue because
violence is a women's issue. The risk of
AIDS has made rape a more frightening
and traumatic experience. There has always
been a risk of sexually transmitted disease
but now her life may be in danger. Domestic violence places women at risk for HIV
exposure. A woman whose partner batters
her places herself in immediate physical
danger by insisting that her partner wear a
condom to practice safer sex.
HIV/AIDS is a women's issue. HIV/
AIDS and the daily sexist oppression faced
by women cannot be separated. As
women get better tools for increasing
control and reducing the risk of HIV
infection, women gain tools for the control of pregnancy and the reduction of
violence in their lives. Solving the problems of women and HIVI AIDS depends
on the empowerment of women.
Women are the key to the solution of
the HIV/AIDS crisis. Women have done

it before. The March of Dimes, which was
organized and carried out by women, led
to the virtual elimination of Polio. When
women mobilize, we can make a difference. AIDS is our problem.

AWAY
THE
FUTURE!
The Herland Recycling Center, located
in Herland's kitchen, is in full swing. We
will take your aluminum cans, glass
bottles and jars, plastic milk jugs and pop
bottles, newspaper, computer paper, and
corrugated boxes.
" We will take these items in any condition rather than allowing them to be
discarded. However, here's the ideal
condition in which to bring them:
• Aluminum cans - rinsed and crushed
• Glass - No lids (labels okay); no metal
rings.
• Plastic milk jugs & pop bottles - no
lids; remove bottom section of pop
bottle.
• Newspaper, computer paper, boxes
- neatly stacked.
Remember-realistically, a plastic jug
cannot be "thrown away" and glass,
aluminum and paper are a privilege, not a
given. RECYCLE!

SPECIALLY DESIGNATED SPACE AT RETREATS
The Herland Retreat Committee has had inquiries concerning support for women in
recovery at the Herland retreats. At our biannual retreats, Herland provides the space,
both literally and figuratively, for women-us-to gather and to create what suits,
enriches and pleases them-us. There is bountiful diversity in the greater Herland
family, and this is naturally and harmoniously reflected at the retreats.
There are always AA meetings, and retreaters are free to organize whatever more they
want and need-ACOA, CODA, ISA or whatever. As there is a significant difference in
the airborn irritation factor of smoke and alcohol, the common area, the main hall and
kitchen, etc., are designated non-smoking but not non-drinking.
Some cabins are designated "Quiet"-for the early-to-bed; some are "Smoke-Free,"
some "Sane and Sober" and some "Chemical-Free," which is understood to include
intoxicants of all kinds and all kinds of cigarettes; some are "Anything Goes," which the
Board, of course, assumes does not include anything illegal. We have never in the past
had a cabin strictly designated "Women in Recovery;" however if interest warrants and
space allows, there will certainly be one this fall and in the future.
The location of various cabins and their designations will be available at the check-in
table in the main hall at registration.

Ms. Magazine has been reborn. Publication of Ms. had ceased following the
sale of the publishing company to Lang
Communications because the magazine
did not receive adequate support from
advertisers to be profitable. Due to the
response of subscribers, Ms. will resume publication with a new format.
The new Ms. will be editorially
free-without advertisements and supported solely by the subscribers. It will
be distributed primarily by subscription with newsstand copies only in a
few select locations.
Editor-In-Chief Robin Morgan says
"this Ms. will be international, and
unashamedly feminist" (her emphasis).
The premier issue of the new Ms. lives
up to this promise. It features Gloria
Steinem exposing the demands of advertisers on women's magazines; poetry by
Toni Morrison, Adrienne Rich, June
Jordan and Diana Chang; news from the
lives of women in Eastern Europe and
much more. The familiar "No comment" features advertisements from
previous issues of Ms. We are promised
that each issue will include internation al and national women's n ews ,
feminist theory discussions, women's
health, ecofeminism, and guest editorials by notable women.
My subscription to the old Ms.
lapsed long ago because its content and
editorial policy did no t stimulate my
interest. This new Ms. warrants a second
chance- my check is in the mail.
•
Subscriptions to Ms. are $30 annually for 6
bimonthly issues. Omespondence regarding subscriptions should be sent to: Ms. P.O. Box 50008,
Boulder, co 80321.

JUDY CHICAGO'S
"DINNER PARTY"
The University of the District of
Columbia has spent $1 .6 million to
acquire and exhibit "The Dinner Party,"
the mammoth and revolutionary work of
art created by Judy Chicago.
The 46Yz-foot triangular sculpture of
embroidery and porcelain features 39
place settings with 39 dinner plates, each
depicting a stylized vagina and meant to
represent attributes of each woman. The
work took 6 years and required the help
of over 400 craftswomen to complete.
Because of the frankly feminist and
controversial nature of the work, it has
not been exhibited for many years; and
has instead been crated and warehoused.
It is wonderful that this work has finally
found a home. In the thinking of many, this
work of art is rivalled only by Judy Chicago's
later work, the Birthing Process.

HERLAND SISTER RESOURCES
ISSUES OF DIVERSITY,
Whether we admit it or not, we have all
been conditioned by patriarchy to certain
behaviors, beliefs, and prejudice, given
gender, race, class, age, sexual preference,
physical ability, appearance, spiritual affiliation or non-affiliation, educational background, etc. Hence, we have become
alienated from each other and from our
elemental powers. Divisiveness and powerlessness are tools of patriarchal oppression
to maintain control over the people.
It is not enough to want to be feminist,
or to respect diversity, we must also
become aware of our unconscious assumptions and prejudice, admit them, and
explore our differing experiences of privilege and oppression. When we gloss over
our differences seeking instead only our
similarities, we unwittingly undermine
each others sense of reality (Adrienne
Rich calls this: "gaslighting"), and therefore perpetuate divisiveness rather than
attain the bonding and collaboration we
desire. We must not gaslight the differences in experiences of a white feminist
and a black feminist, for example, a
married woman and a lesbian, a Catholic
and a Witch, etc. It may be uncomfortable
to talk honestly about our differing experiences, but it will open the way for deeper
understanding which will unite us and
create an atmosphere where everyone is
important.
United we stand, divided we fall. When
we exclude a woman from the everexpanding circle of women because of a
byDeborahFox
difference, we have played into the hands
of patriarchy, weakened our power, and
undermined our collective goal of liberation.
My most cherished vision is of loyalty
among all women of all diversities towards
each other-a universal sisterhood. " Sisterhood does point directly to the revolutionary phenomenon of the bonding of
those who have been conditioned to be
divided against each other-a bonding
that signals revolt and is in itself the
beginning of liberation." (Mary Daly,
Beyond God the Father.)
Before feminism existed, or could exist,
there were lesbians, who in their refusal
to define themselves in relation to men,
laid the foundation for the feminist movement. Yet there has been homophobia
within the feminist movement! On the
other hand, there has also been the implication that if a woman is involved with a
man, she is not valuable to the feminist
movement, that she cannot possibly
separate herself from patriarchal elements
while she is relating to males.
The men are probably laughing all the
way to the positions of power while we
squabble within the feminist movement;
which keeps us diverted from claiming
our primary and central vision in shaping
the future.
Ecology teaches us that the more diversity within an ecosystem, the more
capacity it has for survival.The feminist
movement is strengthened by the diver
sity within it. I believe it is the only
movement radical enough to be the
greatest force in the world today for a
complete transformation of society and of
our relation to all life. Our behavior is an
example for humanity, as it was in prehistory. We are the mothers of the world
whether we bear children or not .
Women's issues are all women's issues
whether they be reproductive rights,
homophobia, racial issues, etc. We must
validate our differing experiences so that a
bonding can take place that will be strong
enough to negate all patriarchy's attempts
to divide us, and get on with our collective goal: bringing a new world to
birth.

The Pledge of
The Universal Sisterhood
I pledge my loyalty to the female species,
to honor and respect, love and accept,
validate and encourage, all womyn of all
diversities of race, class, age, sexual
preference, physical ability and appearance, spiritual affiliation or non-affiliation, educational and economic background, and cultural heritage. To sow
understanding and knowledge where
prejudice and ignorance have grown.
I am a member of the universal sisterhood, and I take my place with pride.

NAVY RESTORES RECORD OF MARINE
The Navy has awarded back pay and
restored the good-service record of a
former Marine seargeant who lost her
assignment after testifying as a character
witness for a lesbian colleague who was
facing a court martial.
Nan Hunter, the American Civil Liberties Union attorney who represented the
former sergeant, Christine R. Hilinski,
said the ruling will make it easier for
service men and women to voice their
opinions that the military's anti-gay policy
is irrational.
"We know that there is tremendous
disagreement with the policy among
officers and others," Hunter said. "This
ruling will enable them to express that
opinion by protecting them from retaliation during the internal policy battles that
lie ahead."
During testimony at the 1988 courtmartial trial, Hilinski said that her former
colleague, Sergeant Cheryl Jameson, "did
a fine job" and that Jameson's sexual
orientation had not affected her work in
any way.
After the trial, Hilinski's supervisor
demoted her and cut her pay by $220 a
month. The corp's only justification, the
ACLU argued in legal papers, was that
her supervisor believed that Hilinski
showed poor judgment in her testimony
because she was "lenient in her position
on homosexuality."
Earlier in the same month, Hilinski's
supervisor had called her "dedicated,
polished, professional and dependable."
At that time, her supervisor had also
called her judgment "outstanding."
After serving for 11 years with the
Marines, Hilinski left the service in 1989.
She said she hoped her successful legal
challenge would encourage others to speak
out against the military's anti-gay policies.
"I strongly believe that sexual orientation
should not be considered in evaluating
anyone's performance," she said.
William B. Rubenstein, the Director of
the ACLU's Lesbian and Gay Rights
Project, said the Navy's decision in the
Hilinski case represents the latest blow to
the military's anti-gay policies. "We will
use this victory to further advance our
war against the military's homophobia,"
he said. "It will be particularly important
in our continuing challenge to ROTC
discrimination on campuses across the
country.
The Lesbian and Gay Rights Project is
sponsoring a national organizing conference on the ROTC in Minneapolis,
Minnesota, on November 9, 1990. Several
hundred people are expected to attend the
one-day conference, which is being designed to provide campus organizers and
other interested persons with strategies to
combat ROTC discrimination against
gays and lesbians.

VIETNAM
WOMEN'S MEMORIAL
The U.S. Commission on Fine Arts has
accepted a recommendation to locate the
Vietnam Women's Memorial in an area
just south of the Vietnam Veterans
Memorial on the Mall in Washington,
D.C. The memorial will serve as a tribute
to the 265,000 military and civilian
women who served in the Vietnam War.
The vote by the Commission on Fine
Arts was the culmination of a more than
two-year struggle by the Vietnam Women's Memorial Project. Originally, the
Commission blocked the memorial saying
it might encourage other ethnic groups or
organizations to seek recognition. The
Commission's rejection of the project was
overridden when Congress passed a bill
authorizing the memorial in October of
1988.

War, and to create a memorial for
them.

NOW COMMISSIONS
MEMORIAL TO WOMEN
The National Organization for Women
has commissioned the building of a
Memorial to Women which is being used
in rallies and actions held across the
country. A large Memorial was constructed specifically for the November 12,
1989, "Mobilize for Women's
Lives" rally in Washington, D.C. The
second memorial was commissioned specifically to allow for more portability.
Both versions of the Memorial carry
the inscription, "In memory of the
courageous women who died from illegal,
unsafe abortions because they had no
choice." Accompanying the Memorial are
posters which tell the stories of six
women who died from abortion in this
century. The most recent is Becky Bell, a
17-year-old Indiana woman who died in
1988 from an illegal abortion because she
could not comply with that state's law
requiring parental consent for a minor to
obtain a legal abortion.
The Women's Memorial Project is
seeking additional stories of women who
have died from illegal abortion for a Roll
of Honor. The purpose is to make clear
that these women were real people, not
just statistics, and to pay tribute to them.
Anyone wishing to contribute stories for
the Memorial Roll of Honor should write
the National NOW Action Center, 1000
16th St., N.W., Suite 700, Washington,
D.C. 20036. Permission from an authorized person for the story to be told must
be included with the story. If possible a

COMMISSION FOR
RESPONSIVE DEMOCRACY
NOW is forming the Commission for
Responsive Democracy to consider the
possibility of organizing a new political
party. The Commission mandated by resolution of the 1989 NOW Conference,
will begin with an organizational meeting
which will be followed by a series of
regional meetings and culminate with a
meeting to formulate recommendations
to the 1991 National NOW Conference.
The formation of the Commission was
prompted by the voter dissatisfaction
indicated by the low voter turnout in the
1988 presidential election and the fact
that citizens registered as independent
represent a larger block of voters than
•
Republicans or Democrats.
