NYC Dyke March Drama

[u/Ok_Item_3313]

The NYC Dyke March is being boycotted by many other organizations including Act Up NYC for putting out and subsequently deleting this statement. Thoughts?

Imma be real I don't really think this statement is bad at all, but I understand that others have read it as "all lives matter"-ing the genocide in Gaza. Would love to hear more takes.

Statement looks good to me. This is directly influenced by the DC march kerfuffle 5 years ago. It’s not AllLivesMatter to understand that Jews are upset about Oct 7th. This sub is welcome to disagree with me.

I do think they could change the order of the paragraphs and slides to center the ongoing violence against Palestinians, but I’m not going to freak out about it.
