    May 11 2026
    Today for KPFA’s Women’s Magazine we are going to spend the hour talking about Cuba and the attacks on Cuba by the Trump administration whose blockage of Cuba is devastating Cuba’s economy. And we will look at how some leftists are responding to that newest war on Cuba. We will be joined by Steph Hoguin who was on the recent Nuestra America convoy to Cuba that brought humanitarian aid to Cuba. And we will also look at some of the amazing political work that cuban’s have been doing to expand human rights in Cuba. Kim Anno and Jennifer Rodgeguiz Montesino will join us to talk about their new documentary “Quba”that will be showing locally which explores the new very progressive family code that was passed in Cuba in 2022 that includes protections for women, children, the elderly and the LGBTQIA community including legalizing same sex marriage and adoption rights. Steph Holguin is a Black, queer, & trans community organizer, educator, and researcher based in Atlanta, Georgia. They organize locally and nationally with the Black Alliance for Peace and a Diasporic Dominican organization, Compas de la Diaspora/Comrades of the Diaspora. Steph recently returned from a delegation to Cuba in March with the Nuestras Americas Cuba Convoy which went to bring humanitarian aid and to show support for Cuba against the US current attacks on Cuba which is devastating the Island. They represented the Black Alliance for Peace, Haiti/Americas Team. Jennifer Rodríguez Montesino is a Cuban Photographer, Director, Producer, Scriptwriter and Translator. And she is joining us from Mexico City where she is getting a master’s degree in Filmmaking, and line producer on the documentary ¡Quba! Kim Anno is an internationally exhibiting/screening painter, filmmaker, and activist who has made a remarkable new documentary on the state of LGBTQ rights on the island, ¡Quba! This inspiring documentary is showing locally at on May 29th at the SF Roxie theater and on June 13th at the Queer Women of color film festival in SF. And on June 22nd at the Elmwood Rialto Theater.

  • Spiritual Activism with Rae Abileah, Susala Kay and Cat Zavis

    Spiritual Activism with Rae Abileah, Susala Kay and Cat Zavis
    Apr 13 2026
    This Monday on Women’s Magazine Lisa Dettmer looks at how spiritual activism can help us deal with being surrounded by so much violence, war, militarism and machismo. I wanted to know how as activists we can practice a spiritual activism in these very hard times and I wanted to learn why practicing spiritual activism is important for the health and success of our movements. To do that I invited three Jewish feminist spiritual activists who I feel have a lot of wisdom to share and who can help us figure out how we can live in integrity and without burn out in these times when there is so little to rejoice about and when we are surrounded by people in power who have so little integrity. I will be joined by: Susala Kay who is a ritualist, facilitator of sacred space, and instigator of eco-feminist beloved community striving towards ending all types of oppression. She lives with disabilities and cares deeply about radical access, power differentials, and liberation. As a JeWitch, and a priestess in the Reclaiming tradition, she has been involved in blending Pagan and eco-feminist Jewish community together since the mid-1990s. She is a co-founder and steward of JeWitch Collective and JeWitch Camp. She co-facilitates monthly in-person Anti-zionist covid-cautious disability justice infused shabbat services for Beyt Tikkun Synagogue in Oakland. She is also involved with Richmond Area Mutual Aid and Singing Resistance East Bay. Rabbi Cat Zavis who is the Rabbi of Beyt Tikkun Synagogue in Oakland, California, and is a member of Rabbis for Ceasefire and the Interfaith Movement for Human Integrity. Rae Abileah who is a member of Rabbis for Ceasefire, an advisory board member of the Center for Jewish Nonviolence, and is an organizer with ALAS, Ayudando Latinos a Soñar in Half Moon Bay, California. You can find Rae at:Tzimtzum Community: https://www.tzimtzumcommunity.com/ Resources Article by Rabbi Cat and Kohenet Rae: https://wagingnonviolence.org/2026/02/resistance-under-occupation-minneapolis-palestine/ JVP-Bay Area: https://www.instagram.com/jvpbayarea/ Collective for Inclusive Education: https://www.instagram.com/collective4inclusiveed (interfaith network to keep schools inclusive and counter racism and zionism in south bay schools – so important!)
