[How do young feminists see the future of feminism? What are the issues that most concern them as they enter adulthood in a terrible economy? The answers might surprise you. Teenage feminist Talia bat Pessi at Star of Davida participated in a webinar about the budget with NOW President Terry O’Neill, and she came away feeling dismayed.—Mona]
She writes:
It also bothers me that O’Neill didn’t even address the impact of the Ryan budget cuts on younger women in her original presentation, which is why I made sure to ask about it. I know O’Neill is of the baby boomer generation, and I would venture a guess that the vast majority of NOW members are as well, but isn’t it important to include people of all ages? Feminists go to extreme efforts to include gays and lesbians, people of color, the disabled, etc. Shouldn’t they consider it a primary goal to include younger feminists?
