Oprah may be crashing weddings and the Food Network may be turning up the grill, but there's much more to talk about in June...
While you will find helpful articles in our More on WOMANTalk section, including delicious summer recipes, beauty tips from Audrey, Debra's article on "Horoscope Hoopla," and exclusive articles by our team of writers on the current issues of education, family policy and more, emphasis will be given to women...
Women who may have started out wearing rose colored glasses but soon found out that the 'rose garden' they were promised was a lie.
I'm not talking about mere disappointment in relationships. I'm talking about lies, corruption, abuse and heart-wrenching situations many women find themselves victims of, with little help to escape. I'm talking about the victims of polygamy.
Our WOMANTalk two-part Special on "Polygamy's Victims" airing on June 16th and 23rd uncovers the abuse, rape, violence and even incest thousands of women and children live with daily. Caught in a web of fear and threats, few find the courage and help they need to escape, as those who are elected or appointed to protect them...don't. Why? That's what we want to expose.
Journalist and Author of 'God's Brothel', Andrea Moore Emmett, takes us inside the dark world of polygamy, while Audrey Russo and I pound on the big lie of HBO's 'Big Love' series glamorizing polygamy. I urge our listeners and readers to tune in and tell your friends and every woman you know to do so as well.
Like child pornography and sex trafficking, polygamy is a subject we don't really want to hear or know about, but we must. It is waiting in the wings for mainstream 'acceptance' following the institution of gay marriage. HBO's 'Big Love' is just the beginning…unless an outcry is heard from the American people.
I hope you will help us get the word out this month...as we address women's issues from the Right.
