ezpanaiona of Navajo land. In 1882, a Presidential Executive Order establilhed the JUA, an area to be lhared by
the Hopi and the Navajo and any other people the pvernment NW fit to aettle thereon. Thia JUA ii the area in
dilpate today becaaae of lesal initiatives by Peabody Coal
and the Hopi Tribal Council, who lhare the aame attorney,
John Boyden. Boyden also drafted the lesillation that becaae PL 93-531 and hired a public relations firm to atase
a fabricated "ranee war" darins the period of time when
Consr- deliberatins on the lecillation.
Actually, there wu no land dilpate or "ranee war." All

not. The Hopi and the Navajo are both euaplea of the
handful of tribes who were siven the land of their anceaton and therefore did not INlcome refas- or dilplaced

The reaervation and allotment l)'ft.ema are the alllloraalities. Both tribes have at.a auccesafally foasht individual

In his last letter, Roa Swimmer uaed the lansuage of
Apartheid: "Resettlement to the new homelands," and this
was presented as "Opportunity for all involved." Relocation
of the Navajo ii domestic Apartheid and needs to be adctr-ed as such.

There are presently two pieces of Concreaional lecillation

by

Richardson of New Mexico, and a repeal bill 1ponaored by
Rep. Mickey Leland of Texas. Both of these billl are expected to draw 111pport from those resiltinc relocation.
Their content ii not specifically known at present, but the
seneral undentandins ii that the moratorium bill will provide for a year's time out to reconsider PL 93-531, and
the repeal lecislation will stop relocation and provide for
the return without penalty of any relocatees who desire to
reverse their relocation. All expen1es involved are to be
incurred by the federlil irovermnent.
In addition to lobbying actioDI 111Rested by both National
NOW reeolution1, there are other needed action1 in which
NOW activists and units can become involved. There ii no
exiatiq body or person who connects individuals or sroups
with individual Blden, traditional activists or resisting
families for the purpose of sponsoring them with aid and
financial aailtance so they can nrvive and do the work

BOOK OF LETTERS VERY SPECIAL EXCHANGE
by Mary McLachlin
Women Well at Ease, by Dr. Beatrice Silverman
and Dr. Sally Goldin
As we all know, when women talk seriously about
the people and ideas that matter to them, the
results can be enriching. An extension of that
fact can be found in a new book, Women Well at
Ease, a paperback that should be in local bookstores by the time you read this.
Something special about Women is that it's an
exchange of letters between two educated, accomplished and articulate women of different
generations. Who they are makes it even more
special: Dr. Beatrice Silverman, Daytona Beach
psychiatrist, and her niece, Dr. Sally Goldin, psychologist and computer science professor at the
Asian Institute of Technology, Bangkok, Thailand.
In the series pf letters from September 1983 to
March 1985, they discuss womanhood from their
individual life experiences. Dr. Silverman bases
much of her commentary on case histories from
her practice over the past 25 years.
Silverman opens the correspondence with a historical perspective on "Biology as Destiny," emphasizing the beginnings of woman's subservience
to man as a product of the primitive female's
vulnerability and need for protection during pregnancy and while caring for children. Goldin responds with a more deterministic view that women's supposed vulnerability is partly a "societal
fabrication--one of the many myths inavented by
the male dominated culture to keep women in
their place."
Succeeding letters deal with a wide and now
familiar range of problems and options faced by
women who dare to seek independence and equality at varying times in their lives. Along the
way, both writers reveal much about their personal. efforts to escape bonds and reach for fuller lives. Silverman's experience of wartime marriage, child rearing, divorce and flight to Mexico
to enter medical school is juxtaposed with
Goldin's accounts of falling into what she calls
the Perfection Trap--studying to exhaustion, suffering anorexia--communal living, open marriage
and, ultimately, self acceptance.
The book is subtitled "A Primer For Independence," and so it might be--a condensation of personal and observed experience by women capable and unafraid of expressing it. The title,
incidentally, is from a line in Chaucer's "Troilus
& Crisedye," which says:
"I am myn owene
woman, wel at ese." (I am my own woman,
completely free.)
An interesting note: Bea Silverman was told by
several publishers that the topics . examined in
Woman are passe and no longer commercially

viable. (Translation: Nobody's interested in the
woman's movement anymore.) Knowing otherwise,
she produced the book on her own through a
local publishing company.

ANOTHER SUCCESSFUL HERLAND RETREAT
In case you missed it and haven't heard--the 2nd
Annual Herland Fall Retreat was a gigantic success. Over 90 women enjoyed a rather cold,
damp fall day which was made sunny and beautiful by the talents of local musicians Peggy
Johnson, Mary Black, Cindy B., Mary K. H., and
the
positively
scintillating
performance
of
Rosy's Bar and Grill.
Veteran retreaters said, almost in unison, that
this was the "best one yet," and the Saturday
night concert had a great deal to do with that.
Even for those who had heard their record, the
personalities of the three kept the audience in
stitches, with such classics as "I Enjoy Being a
Gull" and the famous "F-Word Song." The music
was great, but their senses of humor made the
total evening just so much fun. Of course, the
food spread was up to its usual standard. (The
nicest addition this camp made was in providing
"troughs" for meals, rather than plates.)
As soon as a spring weekend is set, HSR will
announce it so you can begin making your plans
for the next retreat. (Start rehearsing your pets
now for the talent show!) The retreat has to be
in April or May, so if you have suggestions, let
the Collective know.

HERLAND LOSES GOOD FRIEND. 'MURRAY'
Herland's housemother and .overseer, Goldie
Murray, or "Murray" as she was called by most
of her friends, died October 8.
Murray and her husband had operated ·a grocery
store in the front of their house and that space
became Herland Bookstore about four years ago.
During the next few years, Murray became a
good friend to those of us who worked at the
store, attended functions there or just dropped
by. She brought us ice water the summer we
replaced the ceiling in the store and always was
interested in who was working and how things
were going.

HERLAND TO BE CLOSED FOR HOLIDAYS
Because so many Collective members and volunteers will be out of town, Herland Sister
Resources, Inc., will be closed both Thanksgiving
and Christmas weekends.
Buy your Christmas
gifts early while the selection is still good.

"I spent more time with her during the last few
years than I have with my mother," a Collective
member remarked at the graveside service. "But
then, she was nicer to me."

405/

848-5429

It was rather remarkable that Murray was able
SHIRLEY M. HUNTER, M.A.

to overcome 80+ years of many prejudices and
be as accepting as she had become, but she did
and we all benefited from it. She also taught us
about growing old and maintaining independence.

COUNSELING

5009 N. Penn, Suite 102
Oklahoma City, OK 73112

Born December 14, 1899, Murray will be remembered by everyone associated with Herland for
her feisty spirit, her sense of humor and her
caringness, which allowed a bunch of women she
had never seen before to invade her home, use
her bathroom and her phone, plop ourselves down
and visit at our convenience.

VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN CONTINUES
On August 17 the body of 22-year old Pamela
Dunn was found at a Lexington, Mass., dump.
Dunn had gone to court in March seeking protection from her husband. The judge issued the order but told her she was "doing a terrible disservice to the taxpayers" by taking up the court's
time when it "has a lot more serious matters to
contend with."

We '11 miss you, Murray. More than we knew we
would. The saddest part is, most of us never
told her we really cared about her.
(Note: There will be a special clean-up weekend,
November 15 and 16, of the living and storage
quarters back of Herland. Bring brooms, vacuums,
boxes, etc., and help clean up those rooms. We
will be working during store hours both days.)

Dunn was with her mother at a bus ...top on August 16, when her husband accosted them, maced
her mother, shot his pregnant wife in the abdomen and dragged her into his car. Her stabbed
and strangled body was found the next day.

All the Sisters of Herland received this note
from Murray's daughter and son:
I really apreciate all that all of you did for
Mother in the past few years.
She en.ioyed
knowing and visiting with all of you and looked
forward to the weekends when the store was
open and she could visit with you.

SWISS EASING SOME CHAUVINISMS
One of the cornerstones of Swiss male chauvinism is gradually being chipped away as the country phases out compulsory housekeeping classes
for girls.
The country's largest canon Zurish is the latest
to abolish the once widespread practice of training girls in special schools to become good
housewives. In a recent referendum, Zurich voters approved lifting the requirement that all
schoolgirls must complete several weeks of
"further education" in housekeeping after they
leave school and before they reach age 20. Now,
boys as well will learn some knitting, cooking
and needlework as part of their basic education.
Zurish made housekeeping classes, similar to the
U.S. 's home ec, compulsory in 1931, but in 1981,
10 years after Swiss women were first granted
the right to vote in federal elections, a national
referendum enshrined equality for women in . the
Constitution and sounded the death knell for
girls-only housekeeping classes. "It is high timne
that the obligatory classes disappeared, not only
because of the injustice between boys and girls,
but, above all, because of the changed makeup
of households," wrote columnist Eva Maria Borer
in the weekly Zuri-Woche.
She said many people now live alone and both
partners in many marriages had jobs, so the tradition of training women to run homes for their
working husbands had become obsolete.
There are still three canons who have not gotten
rid of their compulsory classes.
At present, Zurich schoolgirls attend institutions
such as the Domestic Economy Further Education
School for courses lasting an average of 3-8
weeks. The school's director, Dr. Erika Welti,
says the school is very progressive. "We don't
just teach them cooking and sewing, but they
learn nutrition, how to manage a budget, how to
shop, how to repair and recycle things, how to
unblock drains--everything necessary to create an
environment in which human beings will feel
well."
Courses at the school are already offered to
boys, but few attend. Starting next year, students of both sexes will take the same basic
houseke~ping courses in their own schools. Local
authorities will still be obliged to offer voluntary
further education classes for teenagers and
schools such as Welti's will be retained for that
purpose.
Beatrice Grotzer, an Education Ministry official,
says many Zurich schools began offering mixedsex classes in skills such as knitting and crochet
to eight-year olds last year. "The classes have
certainly become livelier since the boys joined."

The Zurich newspaper Tages-Anzeiger hailed the
electorate's 69 % support for ending compulsory
classes as welcome recognition of the fact that
running a home is not purely a job for women.
"The clear Yes is also a Yes to the legal
equality of women," it wrote.

missed it, you may really want to make sure you
see it this time.
The photographic images by and of lesbians of
JBB (Joan E. Biren), in a slide/narrative presentation, range from portraits and documentary images to the comic and the erotic. They are a
powerful evocation of our own experience as lesbians and as women.
Sponsored by Little Feather Productions, the presentation will be at 7:30 p.m., Saturday, November 15, in the Activity Building at Revercbon
Park, 3400 Maple, between Oak Lawn and Turtle
Creek.

UNIVERSITY GUARDS WITNESS RAPE-MURDER

ANOTHER TV FILM ABOUT STEVEN BIKO

Clarkson University security guards Donald
Shanty and Kim Avadikian thought they had
stumbled on two students consensually making
love by a campus arena, the first week in
September, and declined to intervene.
"I have seen students having sex in unusual
places before,.. Shanty said.

Contrasting with last fall's Showtime special
about anti-Apartheid activist Steven Biko, the
one being shot now focuses on the young black
man himself.
Starring St. Elsewhere's Denzel
Washington in the title role, the film is based on
two books written by Donald Woods about Biko,
who was first introduced to many of us in song
by Holly Near and Ronny Gilbert. Kevin Kline
also stars as journalist Woods. Last fall's Biko
dealt with the trial of the police and doctors
who were judged to be responsible for the activist's death.
Watch for ..Biko: Asking for
Trouble" this fall.
