Showing Original Post only (View all)National Womens March Leadership is Anti-Semitic, Apologize or Resign [View all]
National Womens March has undoubtedly impacted the US political atmosphere in ways that have empowered previously uninvolved masses. Emboldened by the show of force in the face of the sexism of the 45 Regime, the Womens March sparked a national movement, conversation, and expanded the playbook for how to fight for womens rights and stem the tide of authoritarianism.
Unfortunately, Womens Marchs national organization has lost its credibility and poisoned its own spirit based on one very simple yet disturbing fact: Its anti-Semitic.

They need to disassociate themselves with this individual yesterday, no need to taint the movement

I can't stand Sarsour. I've seen women's marches in different cities disassociate themselves

Who are you representing when you say "Us"? Are you the leadership of the National Womens March...?
