"Take Action" Against Feminist Majority Foundation

Text of email I sent, with subject "I don't support rape"

And I assume the FMF does not either, which is why I'm expecting a press release responding to and condemning this:

"My personal thoughts are let the guy go," said Peg Yorkin, founder of the Feminist Majority Foundation. "It's bad a person was raped. But that was so many years ago. The guy has been through so much in his life. It's crazy to arrest him now. Let it go. The government could spend its money on other things."


Until FMF makes it clear that it does not condone rape, I will not support this organization. I might even use this as an example of misogyny within the women's movement next time I teach "Introduction to Women's Studies."
