I really wish BLM protestors would stop alienating black women who care about feminism.

I saw so many people on Twitter calling Posie racist on this video. I don’t get it. If a black woman says transwomen are women we are just supposed to agree? Because she’s wearing a BLM shirt?

There seems to be a bit of infighting among UK feminists, which is very sad - it's like, we are surrounded by enemies, why fight amongst ourselves?

Apparently, Posie is blunt and not PC on this and other issues and that irritates and angers other UK GC feminists.

However, I personally love that Posie is fearless, highly visible and gets things done. I don't have to be with her on every issue to be with her on this one.

In good and bad news, there are too few American feminists raising their heads above the parapet for there to be infighting. And I'm not criticizing any Americans; for one thing, unlike Brits, Canadians, et al., many Americans are dependent on our jobs for health insurance.

But I just read a thread on WoLF's Twitter explaining why WoLF was thankful for Posie's help and why WoLF wishes the same British feminists who criticize Posie would understand why WoLF does what it does and with which allies.

This is a really fascinating thread for anyone who is interested in why WoLF has been bashed by some British feminists and why it doesn't deserve to be - WoLF gets things done, at great risk to themselves, and for that, IMO, they deserve every American woman's gratitude.
