Holtz: I have a very special guest for this show, joining me on the phone will be Camerina Schwartz Davidson, President, CA Region of the National Organization for Women (NOW).

2. Our
Guest Camerina Schwartz Davidson
shares how her
enthusiasm for the National
Organization for Women (NOW)
began in About our Guest Camerina Schwartz Davidson: Camerina believes in the power of grassroots organizing to advance feminist priorities to create equity for women and girls in our communities - this was the single focus that first drew her to National Organization for Women (NOW) when presented in her high school. Through the years, Camerina's feminist perspective evolved from recognizing why we need intersectional feminism to understand how facets overlap and require more equitable strategies. Now through her position as President of California NOW, she works to build inclusive communities where all voices are elevated. Camerina has worked in the non-profit sector for 15 years, both as an entrepreneur and as a leader directing communications for non-profit organizations. Her most recent assignment is with WeSPARK Cancer Support, where her primary focus is on communications and outreach to raise awareness about the organization.

high school when she
was concerned about harassment.
She encourages the NOW chapters
to engage youth where they are
in schools and colleges and
include them in projects. When
NOW began in 1966 it advocated
for the rights of women and
girls, but it has realized that
there is an intersectionalism
dimension, as one category of
minority coincides with another
category of minority, be it
feminism, LGBTQI, handicap
access, color of skin, age, etc.
Today NOW does not lose sight of
the big picture of
intersectionalism and encourages
inclusivity in all events.
