Sybil
Sybil Ludington, Matron Saint of the Forgotten Woman, is an occasional
contributor to this space.
Dear St. Sybil,
Let me describe myself, flagrant lesbian that I am, living
the dread HOMOSEXUAL LIFESTYLE. I am a mother, a
grandmother, a daughter, a sister, a good friend and a loving
companion. I go to work, buy groceries, put gas in my car, walk
my dogs, watch a little television, read a few books. I pay my
taxes; I vote in every election, even schoolboard and millages,
and I vote an informed ballot. I give a fair amount of $$$ to
charities, and I contribute a lot of time and energy to various civic
and community undertakings and to political campaigns. I am a
pretty typical lesbian, and about as good a citizen as we have in
Oklahoma or the country - so why, a few days ago, did the
Oklahoma House of Representatives pass, with one dissenting
vote, a House Resolution (1045) that thoroughly degrades and
demeans me? It is an ugly resolution, saying that homosexuality
should not be taught as a natural lifestyle, and stating as a given, a
WHEREAS, that "... those who engage in same-sex marriages
should not be permitted to adopt or engage in foster care". It
cynically scapegoats gays and lesbians at the expense of our
state's children, who are abused and killed at a dreadful rate by,
almost exclusively, heterosexual people - and all this for the
purpose of pandering to the extreme right wing of a religious
movement which follows lockstep in the ranks of the Inquisition,
the Crusades, and myriad Jihads of other faiths. I am so angry I
am about to twist off. Please help me deal with this. Thank you.
Yours,
ImaN.Raged
Dear Ima,
Of course you are angry, and so you should be. That
resolution, non-binding as it is, is nasty and a basis for real
legislation; for instance, for the amendment that the homophobic,
sexist, bigoted, ever-so-tiresome Bill Graves has tried to tack on
to the Ryan Luke child abuse bill. That amendment would deny
gays and lesbians and bisexuals the right to be foster or adoptive
parents - like it's not the straight daddies and granddaddies who
are the perps most of the time.
About all I can advise you, Ima, is to take advantage of
the energy of your anger and do something with it. Write your
legislators, call them, and most importantly, if you can, if you
dare, visit them and let them know who you are. There were a lot
of offensive, facile self-serving comments at the Capitol recently
by your - Goddess help you - "leaders" along the lines of
"Personally I don't know any homosexuals." Well, first of all, that
has nothing to do with anything; not knowing a group of people
hardly excuses someone from writing and passing hate
resolutions about them, does it? But anyway, of course they do
know homosexuals, Oklahoma City has some fine gay lobbyists,
quite open; and besides, most people are lucky enough to have
2

one or two queers in their own family. But it could be true that a
lot of these people at the Capitol might not actually know that
they know you; with the Christian Right on a rampage, and
fainthearted politicians surrendering to them at every turn, it is no
wonder that gays and lesbians feel comfortable in a closet; sort of
like the comfort of bunting or swaddling clothes. Very cozy,
completely restricting.
If you are able, Ima, why don't you organize a daily
parade of gays to the Legislature and the City Council and your
Senators and Congressmen; sit and visit with them; show them
pictures of your families and your cats and dogs and admire
theirs; talk about your rheumatism and the Final Four and How
'bout the Cowboys; make up "Gay of the Day" cards and give
them out, for tangible witness that they know you; so that never
again will any of them be able to pass this hateful kind of
legislation or resolution without your honest, decent face front
and center in their minds' eyes. Do not let them do this to you
again without looking you in the eye and declaring themselves
your enemy.
Lovingly,
Sybil
Dear Herland Voice Sisters,
Such a lovely surprise to find St. Sybil in "On The Issues." I'm
glad her wisdom will be shared by a larger readership. You can
always say, ''We had her first." Incidentally, she isn't in your
current issue. I hope she hasn't turned her celestial back on the
little people.
Best Witches,
Jimmy
Dear Jimmy,
We do have a bit ofparental pride that Sybil was first published in
The Voice. Her channeler assures us that St. Sybil hasn't
abandoned us - she just needed a little break from the pressure of
publication deadlines. Thank goddess she's back this month!

The Progressive Populist is a new monthly paper that promises to provide a voice that is missing in the mainstream media. "
Please consider us your hometown paper for progressive populists and your monthly antidote to the daily news ," says the editor, Jim
Cullen, in the premiere issue.
Cullen says, 'There are a few people in the heartland of America, armed with the First Amendment, a printing press and a
newspaper with a mission: to tell the stories of working people and how they can regain control of the United States."
"The Progressive Populist, edited in Austin, Texas and published in Storm Lake, Iowa, thinks people are looking for populist
voices with progressive values. We plan to provide those voices and tell people how they can make a difference."
In the second issue, Vol. 2, Issue 1, Cullen further defines the mission of the paper. ''We are here to serve as a forum for those
people who find themselves increasingly left out of national political and economic
discussion: the farmers, the workers and progressive small business people."

To meet these lofty goals, The Progressive Populist includes the writing of the

unlikely to ever be seen in that daily paper published in Oklahoma' City. One of my
favorites is Carol Countryman's 'Tales from East Texas" column. I was hooked with
the headline from her first column, ''White Trash, Liberal and Proud."

With spring now here, it is a good time to read about plants, health, and the
environment. HERLAND'S LENDING LIBRARY will display a collection of
non-fiction books related to earth and human care. Please come in and browse.
The library also will get some extra cleaning on April 14, HSR Work Day; bring
cleaning supplies, some stiff brushes, vacuum cleaners, trash bags, brooms, mops,
etc.
The library collection is currently being inventoried and numbered with new materials added almost every month. The
card catalog (at this point, title cards in green box) is in process but usable; the cards are being reconciled to titles on the shelves
to accurately reflect our collection. Several previous library volunteers have worked very hard at developing a system and
processing books which deserves many thanks. Donations of time and money are always welcome. Library supplies now
needed are to aid in the inventory project: book pockets, library paste, book mending tape, black and pink ink pens, book ends,
ten empty VHS video boxes, small table, red permanent marker, another card catalog box (for author cards).
An extra effort is being made to get all overdue books returned. It is appreciated when books are returned promptly in
two weeks; however, please bring books back that are extremely overdue and the fines will be waived. This month reminders by
phone and mail will be made to borrowers with the hope of making it easy to return all books that are checked out. Contact the
library clerk at 521 -9696 by leaving a message or visit with a volunteer on the weekend.

Patriot Underground Striltes in '9S
Editor's note: The article reprinted below from Klan Watch, a publication by the Southern Poverty Law Center
places the bombing of the Murrah building in the context of other terrorist activities of the far-right militia and
makes a strong case that the events are part of a campaign of violence. Klan Watch will release False Patriots. a
special report based on information collected by its Militia Task Force, in April. Requests for copies can be faxed
to 334-264-8891.
The year that will be most remembered for the Oklahoma City bombing was ful~ of planned terrorist attacks by antigovernment
Patriots.
"Underground Patriots have been doing their homework over the past few years and in 1995 we began to see the results," said
Militia Task Force Director Joe Roy. ''They've formed secret cells, they've read the bomb manuals and they've sighted their targets. It
doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out what comes next. We can expect to see more acts of sabotage like the Amtrak derailment,
more explosions like Oklahoma City, and, unfortunately, more deaths."
The Tri-States Militia, a national organization comprised of militias from at least 30 states, was linked to at least five would-be
terrorists whose bomb plots were thwarted by federal and state law enforcement. Oklahoma militia leaders and Identity "prophets" Ray
Lampley and Larry Crow had been involved with Tri-States since April, 1995. The two, along with Lampley's wife Cecilia and J.D.
Baird, were arrested in November, 1995 on federal explosives charges. The four were allegedly part of a terrorist cell that planned to
blow up the Southern Poverty Law Center; the Houston, Texas office of the Anti-Defamation League; federal buildings; abortion clinics
and sites in the gay community.
Charles Ray Polk, another self-styled Patriot with ties to the Tri-States Militia, was indicted by a Texas federal grand jury in
June for possessing illegal weapons and explosives, and for plotting to blow up the regional offices of the IRS in Austin, Texas.
In late April, a terrorist attack was blocked in Washington state when federal investigators discovered that Darwin Michael
Gray, a friend of Randy Weaver and nephew to Kevin Harris, had obtained the blueprints to the Spokane federal courthouse and had
practiced with the same explosive mixture that was used in the Oklahoma City bombing.
In Nevada, bombs went off at a U.S. Forest Service office and at the home of one of its agents. Another bomb left at the Reno
offices of the IRS failed to explode.
Ohio Aryan Nations member Larry W. Harris "'.as arrested for illegally obtaining three vials of freeze-dried bubonic plague
culture. In a search of Harris's house police found hand grenade triggers, explosive devices and detonating fuses .
Four members of the Minnesota Patriots Council -- LeRoy Wheeler, Douglas Baker, Dennis Henderson and Richard Oelrich -were convicted in federal court for conspiracy to use ricin, a deadly toxin, to kill federal agents and law enforcement officers. The four
would-be assassins had enough ricin to kill 1,400 people. They learned to manufacture the poison from a terrorist manual obtained from
a mail-order house catering to the Christian Patriot movement.
Across the country, many militias and underground paramilitary units were arming themselves with illegal weapons and
training in sniping and explosive techniques, guerrilla tactics and counterintelligence at a rapid pace in 1995.
In one Southern state, inexpensive and easily obtained rifles converted to machine guns and equipped with silencers were
confiscated by authorities from militia extremists. Investigators report that at least 60 of these machine guns -- capable of firing 1,000
rounds per minute -- have disappeared into the extremist underground.
Stockpiles of illegal machine guns and explosives, along with assault rifles and thousands of armor-piercing bullets were
confiscated from Patriot groups in California, Oklahoma and Michigan.
More than a ton of explosives was stolen last year in raids on commercial sites in California, Georgian, Indiana, Idaho and
Oklahoma. Dynamite, C-4 plastic explosive, ANFO (ammonium nitrate/fuel oil), raw ammonium nitrate, detonation cord, electric
blasting caps and fuses are now suspected to be somewhere in the Patriot extremist underground.
Law enforcement sources believe that somewhere in the Smoky Mountains there is a hidden cache of Stinger missiles, more
than a dozen LAW rockets, hundreds of pounds of C-4, machine guns and thousands of rounds of military-grade ammunition waiting to
be sold.
Two cases of fully automatic M-16 rifles that were stolen in the Great Lakes region last fall were tracked to rural Louisiana
where they are suspected to have disappeared into the paramilitary underground.
Patriots practiced guerrilla tactics at clandestine training camps in Oklahoma, Texas Montana, Idaho, Florida, Arkansas and
New Mexico. Some of the camps had sniping ranges and demolition grounds for bomb testing.
Automatic weapons, large caliber machine guns and 50-caliber sniper rifles were common. Explosives manufacture and demolition
techniques were studied and practiced. professional instruction was provided by Vietnam and Gulf War veterans, mercenaries, active
duty military and law enforcement personnel.
"When you put all of these elements together, " said Militia Task Force director Roy, "You have a frightening picture of where
these Patriot extremists are heading. The hard-core underground is arming itself and training for a campaign of violence and
intimidation. They say their targets are the federal government, law enforcement and civil rights groups, but their victims are likely to be
anyone -- including innocent men, women and children who happen to be in the way." ~

BOOK
REVIEW
by Jill Gamer
Mama Makes Up Ber
Mind ..... and Other
Dangers of Southern
Living - Bailey White
I've heard Bailey
White's wonderful stories
on National Public Radio
for years, and I finally got
around to reading one of her books. All I can say is "what took me
so long and how many more are there because I want to read them
all." Bailey White is one of the funniest storytellers I've heard and
the stories in this book will testify to that. The tales of her
mother's escapades are some of the funniest, but Bailey's tales of
her first grade students and life in the south provide her with
plenty of material . I wondered during the book how much of her
stories are real, and how much are made up, but that's the sign of
a good storyteller to leave you wondering.
Bouse Rules - Heather Lewis
Where do I start with this one? Let's see, horse riding,
followed by lots of drugs, followed by graphic details of rough
sex, a little horse back riding, drug use, drugged-out rough sex,
horse back riding, and the gory story continues. I have no idea
what the purpose was in writing this book. There was not much of
a story other than a fifteen year old girl who rejoins the horse
show circuit with its rampant drug and alcohol use, and rough sex
with Tory, one of the other riders, and Linda, the wife of the team
owner. The only reason I even finished the book was my
compulsion to finish books I start. After descriptions of the riders'
days without sleep, taking drugs that keep them going, mixed
with lots of drinking, I was exhausted. One of the quotes on the
back of the book was by Kerry Fried of The Boston Review,
"... grueling, its view of humanity devastating. House Rules is
brilliant and ugly, a nightmare for any reader." It sure was and I
should have taken that as a warning to stay away. -ec

Reasonable Creatures: Essays on Women and Feminism
Katha Pollit
As long as my dad has subscribed to The Nation for me,
I've been a fan of Katha Pollit. Her essays on issues such as
family values, violence against women, the debate over fetal
rights, and surrogate mothering, just to name a few, are always
concise, insightful, and witty. Many of her essays I've seen in The
Nation, as well as more, are included in this wonderful collection.
I used one of her essays, "Why I Hate Family Values" in an
Introduction to Sociology class I taught at the community college,
much to the disgust of many of my more conservative students. It
was around the time of the last presidential elections when the
term family values became the big political, read Republican,
buzzword. In this essay, Pollit counters Dan Quayle's attack on
Murphy Brown, and puzzles over the right and the left's idea of
what constitutes family values. And she questions the belief that
the best thing for society is for marriages to remain intact, and
argues that maybe we need to change our ideas and expectations
about families, sex education, and abortion. Admitting her own
bias since she and her husband divorced, she offers this
observation. "But I am still waiting for someone to explain why it
would be better for my daughter to grow up in a joyless household
than to live as she does now, with two reasonably cheerful parents
living around the comer from each other, both committed to her
support and cooperating, as they say on "Sesame Street," in her
care. We may not love each other, but we both love her. maybe
that's as much as parents can do for their children, and all that
should be asked of them."
Pollit is bold in her ideas and observations, and she offers
challenging ideas on the social issues of the day. She took the title
of her book from a quote by Mary Wollstonecraft's book, A
Vindication of the Rights of Woman. "I wish to see women
neither heroines nor brutes, but reasonable creatures." As human
beings in other words, which as Pollit will tell you, is what
feminism is all about. Radical idea huh?
