Women's Progress Alliance--Andrea Dworkin is one of this
nation's most eloquent and visionary theorist on issues that affect
all of our lives. She has shown time and time again that she is not
intimidated by those in power who are threatened by women who
dare to speak the truth. Attempts to silence Dworkin only expose
the hypocrisy of those who, in the name of the first amendment,
would censor another individual and misrepresent their ideas. The
Women's Progress Alliance supports Andrea Dworkin and calls
upon the insightful members of the WCASA to rectify this blatant
act of censorship and discrimination by an individual from whom,
it appears, thinks freedom of expression belongs only to people he
approves of.
