This week on the Women’s Liberation Music Hour with Phoenixx, the theme is Resistance with a special focus on Anger.
In general, women are socialized to not feel anger, let alone act on it. Of course, it’s no coincidence that rebellion, resistance and revolution against male supremacy is fueled and sustained by anger. Feeling and acting on one’s anger is essential to Women’s Liberation. Reasons for being angry these days are too many to enumerate, but if I were to name a few… sexism, racism, anti-semitism, classism, lesbophobia, ableism, sizeism, poverty…Oh, don’t want to forget to mention what really is at the top of my uncensored list–pornography, johns, female sexual slavery, heteropatriarchal sexualization of women and girls, the pillaging and raping of the Earth and Her wimmin, and male violence of all varieties. May The Furies rise up and as Amy Carol Webb sings: “Mothers and Sisters of the Earth: shout your name, and claim your worth!”
