The fact that abortion is the central article if not the only article of the feminist creed was made very clear this week in a controversy that erupted about the soon-to-take-place Women’s March on Washington.
Alexandra DeSanctis reports in National Review, “The Women’s March on Washington has removed the pro-life group New Wave Feminists from its list of official event sponsors after backlash from feminists arguing that pro-life women are not welcome in the feminist movement.”
Jessica Valenti of The Guardian insisted, “We need to stop the myth that feminism is simply ‘anything a woman does.’ Feminism is a movement for justice—abortion access is central.”
Well, central indeed. By the afternoon, the organizers of the Washington March had fallen on their sword, offering a public apology and asking all pro-abortion friends to join them in the March and to please, please, please forget the controversy yesterday had ever taken place.
