Women's March event canceled over concerns of being 'overwhelmingly white'

https://www.foxnews.com/politics/organiz...e-its-too-white

Organizers of a Women’s March rally slated for Northern California next month have canceled the event, saying they were concerned that participants would have been “overwhelmingly white."

In a news release, organizers for the march in Eureka – about 270 miles north of San Francisco – said Friday the "decision was made after many conversations between local social-change organizers and supporters of the march.”

“Up to this point, the participants have been overwhelmingly white, lacking representation from several perspectives in our community,” the news release continued.

According to Census Bureau data from July, Humboldt County, where Eureka is the county seat, is 74 percent non-Hispanic white.

“I was appalled to be honest,” Amy Sawyer Long told the Washington Times. “I understand wanting a diverse group. However, we live in a predominantly white area … not to mention how is it beneficial to cancel? No matter the race people still want their voices heard.”

The rally, which had been planned for Jan. 19, would have commemorated the third anniversary of the original Women’s March, which was held Jan. 21, 2017, the day after President Trump took office.

The group said it is exploring shifting the rally to March to celebrate International Women’s Day.

The Women’s March movement has been marred by complaints from some black and Latina women, who've raised concerns that their input is often disregarded or overlooked, the New York Times reported.

The cancellation of the march in California follows a previous one in Chicago.

Women's March organizers in that city cited high costs and limited volunteer hours as reasons for nixing the annual rally, the Chicago Tribune reported.

“There’s no march, there’s no rally,” said Sara Kurensky, Women’s March Chicago board member. “We’re going to provide ways for people to organize and take action in their local communities.”

WOMEN’S MARCH LEADER CLAIMS SHE WAS KICKED OUT OF PROGRESSIVE GROUP FOR BEING JEWISH, REPORT SAYS

Meanwhile, the Women’s March national leadership has faced accusations of anti-Semitism because of ties to Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan.



In a speech in February, Farrakhan praised a Women's March co-President Tamika Mallory and declared “the powerful Jews are my enemy.”

Leaders of Women’s March Inc. have come under scrutiny for not condemning Farrakhan’s rhetoric fast enough. The Nation of Islam is considered a hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center.

Earlier this month, a Washington state chapter of the Women's March disbanded in protest because of the national group's links to anti-Semitism.

Marches and rallies are still planned for Jan. 19 in Washington, D.C., and dozens of other cities nationwide and internationally.

Let me see if I have this right:

The 'Women's March' was cancelled by...............the "Womens March" movement? Do I have that correct?

And it took exactly 1 post for this to be called 'racism'.

And exactly 1 more post for this to somehow involve Trump?

I find that odd.

Well, you should've added an anti Christian side to it, as well as somehow working in 'evil white male conservatives', and 'rural people suck' thoughts.

Vambo Playbook....
1. Post the same asinine response anytime the subject of Race / Racism comes up.
2. Post links and quote articles without ever actually offering an opinion.
3. Repeat as necessary.

Personally I think the race card gets played too much .... but that does not mean that racism isn't alive and well and in fact thriving under Trump who does everything he can to enable and encourage a core demographic of supporters for him.


The more things change the more they stay the same.

You’ve posted cartoons from the wildly anti-Semitic cartoonist Ben Garrison. You posted an anti-Semitic rant from Kevin McCarthy that McCarthy himself scrambled to scrub from the internet the day after the synagogue shootings. You’ve posted over 50+ links to the virulently racist and anti-Semitic website Breitbart, and in an attempt to defend the site asked “What’s racist about a publication having a “Black Crime” section?”. You’ve posted links to The Daily Called, a site that has to fire staffers at rate of about once or twice a month when their memberships in white power groups can no longer be denied. You’ve repeatedly posted clips from Milo Yiannopoulos lectures, a man who was banned from Twitter for instructing his followers to send pictures of apes to a black actress, and banned from PayPal for sending Nazi symbols to Jewish journalists. And just this week - hilariously - you got tricked into believing that brown people were bringing smallpox into America by an overtly racist Twitter account called “@WeSupport45”, posting their tweet while making sure to cut off the source name.

No, all you need to do is go on record saying that Trump is a GOD and that everything he does is perfect and that his Poop Don't stink...

Then you get immediate consideration. No other skills but sucking up are needed.

“Minorities are too dumb to know any better, I hope they wise up and learn to think” is definitely a normal statement that normal people make all the time.

LOL Just like bringing up a senseless killing of a police officer by an illegal immigrant but forget about talking about the senseless murders of kids at Parkland, Sandy Hook and the party goers in Las Vegas. Yeah, makes all the sense in the world.....NOT

If you wanna talk about Border Security, great, but we must talk about who can buy a gun. Otherwise, it's a waste of time

When a guy who struggles to speak coherently or in complete sentences starts ranting about how minorities need to learn to think for themselves, he doesn’t deserve anything but condescension.

Why would I put you on ignore when you’re such an easy target for laughs and mockery because of statements like “Minorities don’t think for themselves, they need to wise up”?
