Janine Fondon is an Assistant Professor and Chair of Communications at Bay Path University, and one of the conveners of the March 8 “On the Move Forum” that honors our collective intention to advance women — from Seneca Falls to Houston for the 1977 Women’s Conference and now Longmeadow, MA. The 1977 Conference official photographer Diana Mara Henry will also be at the forum, to be held at Blake Commons at Bay Path. The purpose is to dialogue, inspire action, and educate the next generation– all to salute those legacy leaders who pledged to advance women some 40 years ago and recognize those who continue the work today.

Patricia Sandoval, professor of communications at Holyoke Community College, produced and directed the heart-filling and bursting multimedia event “Latinas con Pluma,” a Spanish-English bilingual performance of poems, plays and essays by famed and distinguished writers from Springfield-based Magdalena Gómez to Chicago-based Sandra Cisneros and beloved friend, the late playwirght Dolores Prida; and music by congueras por excelencia Julissa Rodríguez and Iréne Shaikly, plus a photo exhibit curated by Waleska Santiago of some of the city’s grandmothers with text about their influence in their lives provided by their adult grandchildren, plus fabulous food from Mexico to Puerto Rico. Julissa Colón, Ticina Cotto, Jocelyn López, Caila Lourdes Ver, Alora Machuca, Priscilla Page, Jovan Roman and Nathalie Vicencio declaimed as if they were the authors of every word. A magical night at the Leslie Phillips Theater at HCC.
Then filmmaker Lary Hott sounds the warning about what federal cuts in the arts could mean; essentially,, silencing the diversity of arts and voices that contribute to the cultural enrichment of the United States, such as “Latinas con Pluma” and extraordinary documentaries.
We are sung out with “Usted,” a cross-generation ballad interpreted by Mexican singer Luis Miguel.
In the photo, members of “Latins con Pluma” ensemble.
