Interview with Woman from Portland at the Battle of Seattle

Published: Feb. 8, 2020, 4:07 p.m.

b'This is a short interview Thistle did with a woman attending a feminist breakfast gathering the day of the Fighting the New Misogyny talk that she was also attending at the Seattle Public Library later on, only three blocks away from the location of the breakfast.\\n\\nAbout 15 women gathered for the event, some from outside of the region and others from the Pacific Northwest and Seattle.\\n\\nWhat is noteworthy about this woman\'s testimony is how she does not identify as "conservative" or "right wing" but that because she has an analysis of gender identity that is not in alignment with trans ideology, she was labeled a "TERF" and subsequently "conservative" and "right wing."\\n\\nIt is important for major media to hear the voices of the women attending the Seattle Public Library event, and not just continue to point at WoLF\'s bipartisan attempts to get radical feminist views into the mainstream via associations with conservatives and conservative groups.\\n\\nPlease listen to this interview and realize that there are hundreds of thousands of women like the woman featured here, but many of us have been bullied into silence and the media blackout means that many more of us do not even know about the erosion of women\'s rights taking place in 2020.\\n\\nThanks for tuning in to WLRN.
