RE: ATTENTION: 'Women's Day March'

in #poetry8 years ago

Lol! You may be right about that. I hope that not all of them feel that way. I think that some may feel dis-respected, some want better healthcare, some just want equal pay. From what I've heard, their march includes a large agenda of topics to march for. I just hope that everything goes peacefully.

I agree with @richq11 about movements being usurped. I watched it happen with the 9/11 movement. the tea party, and occupy wallstreet.

So do I, but I've writing for years that every movement or institution inevitably gets usurped by it's worst element...I'm afraid that's what's happened to the Women's Movement. I got to spend some time with Camille Paglia some years back...she's what exemplifies the movement to me.
