Event Description:
Over the last decade, the statement ‘women are female’ has become hotly contested as an “exclusionary” or “harmful” notion by so-called transgender activists. These activists claim that women are actually the people who "feel like women", and they fight for policies that would allow any man to simply self-identify as a woman and access women’s shelters, bathrooms, and prison cells. These policies threaten to erode the hard-won rights of women and girls.
Women who protest these changes in policy have been fired, stalked, and harassed. Even women who simply question the underlying incoherence of these policies have faced online and physical intimidation. This sort of bullying and emotional manipulation is intended to stifle debate and quash dissent.
The Women’s Liberation Front (WoLF) is proud to host an event* where feminist women can speak freely about the misogyny inherent in the modern “transgender” movement.
On October 2nd, 2021, Lierre Keith, Saba Malik, Dr. Mahri Irvine, and Lauren Adams will give a critical analysis of the transgender movement and its impact on women and girls. The event will take place at the beautiful Austin Public Library in downtown Austin, Texas from 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm CT.
UPDATED SPEAKERS LINEUP:
Lierre Keith will explore the origins of transgenderism and why women must resist it.
Saba Malik will address the way gender identity advocates compare transphobia with racism and why this is both inaccurate and offensive.
Dr. Mahri Irvine will address why so many women remain silent while sex-based rights are quickly eroded: economic coercion at the nexus of capitalism and patriarchy.
Lauren Adams will discuss the current state of women’s legal recognition at the federal and state level, and why this is a crucial moment in the fight for women’s rights.
