Starhawk Interview!

On April 13, 2005, I had the deep pleasure of interviewing Starhawk as she was passing through L.A.

Author of The Spiral Dance and seven other books, Starhawk is noted as a feminist and activist, working hard to bring publicity to the fore on envirnomental issues and human rights issues. She truly puts her ethics and principles into practice, and is a shining example for the Wiccan and Pagan community - in fact the larger society as well - on how to stand up for what one believes in.

One of the issues we discussed was the envronment for activism in the last few years. Starhawk is of the opinion that our society is becoming more repressive and authorities are permitting less and less open dissent.

I am in agreement with that sentiment. Government repression - including censorship, restricted liberties, surveillance, and similar oppressive measures - is something that I believe we all need to fight at every turn. I will discuss this more in the future, but for now, I leave it to you to think about.

However, mostly I interviewed Starhawk about what means the most to her in life, about her religion, her spirituality, and where she has come from, is, and going to. Be sure you see the Moonrise movie when it comes out!
