Description: 

A discussion originally broadcast live November 15, 1971 on Unlearning to Not Speak. It brings out the differences between American nightclub "belly dancing" and the meaning of such dancing in Moroccan and Indian villages. And the subject of dance is but the point of departure for an interesting comparison of women's lifestyles in these different societies. Zenia Daragahey and Donna Whitley, both teachers (in 1971 anyway) at EveryBody's Dance Studio in Oakland speak with Marina Bostead and Betty Mayer, then working with the Unlearning to Not Speak Collective.
