I doubt that these organizers are going to look back on how the successes of First and Second Wave Feminism often didn't benefit or include women who aren't white and middle class or higher. Third wave feminism stated to be more inclusive, but there is still so much to learn, discuss, and be done; and often white privilege and paternal/maternalism foul things up.

I'm likely in their target demographic, but I won't get on board for various reasons, and I'd probably get together with a group that isn't so shock value. I'm also towards the Dixie Chicks reference as there are far better, and more recent political performers and entertainers to mention.

I know one can't always tell race or ethnicity by looking at someone, but this page of "Who We Are" looks pretty white to me. https://waronwomen.com/RockTheSlutVote/whoweare
