Feminism

I attend an independent highschool in Monterey, California, called the York school. Yesterday we had an "anti-feminist" speaker, (Dr. Summers?) who wrote a startling book titled "Who Stole Feminism". The students of my school were incredibly entertained by this woman and left the assembly with what I feel is a terrible view of women. I think my school needs a counter speaker who will speak for women's issues. Please write me back if anybody could speak at my school. Thanks.

Thanks for your note to Feminist.com--and I have just the speaker for you--Laura Flanders. She runs the Fairness and Accuracy in Reporting (FAIR) Women's Desk. Laura is a wonderful reporter and on top of that she knows how wrong Dr. Sommer's is--and has lots of facts to prove it. You can reach Laura at #(212) 343-2353. If you need more suggestions, please let me know--and thanks for ensuring that your school hears the true story.
