Quick Hit: Backlash Spectacular

Make sure to check out Katha Pollitt's latest column, "Backlash Spectacular," where she takes on Phyllis Schlafly getting an honorary degree from Washington University, the "Pill Kills" campaign, and the Lilly Ledbetter case.

Also, is it just me or does "Backlash Spectacular" sound like it could be a great name for a musical?

I'm in love with Katha Politt.

Every friday needs a righteous feminist rant like that.

That was fantastic. I bookmarked that for later, if I need a pick me up, as I do enjoy a good rant.

Katha just made my day.

Ha! Way to go, Katha! I may name my firstborn after you. ;)

"Backlash Spectacular"? That gives me an idea...

BACKLASH SPECTACULAR!

*sings*

So exciting the audience will stomp and cheer!

So delighting it will run for fifty years!

I love the idea of the musical! You're on to something there, Jessica. It would be hilarious!

or a band?

Actually I feel that it is a Backlash Tsunami.

When are we going to get so angry that we will not accept this anymore?

ciao,
