One of our FIST members, Sky, is making a coast-to-coast trip on her motorcycle, at 61 years of age, in order to be a “visible role model” for youth. In her words, “I am one woman. One woman on a motorcycle. I am calling out to my sisters across the globe, to stand up, speak out, be seen, be heard.”
Her message:
1. Women’s rights are human rights. We have basic human rights to safety, dignity and privacy separate from males. This is a BASIC HUMAN RIGHT. We demand it.
2. Women have a right to compete with other women, without men destroying our sports.
3. Lesbians are Female Homosexuals who do not want men, even in pretty lipstick. No Men. Simple. The rape culture being forced on lesbians WITHIN our own so-called community is heinous and WILL stop.
4. Transitioning Children is the worst Homophobic Conversion Therapy ever invented. Let kids be kids. Stop the child abuse!
The Ride could use donations, help setting up rallies, hanging posters in the cities to which she will be traveling, and getting out the word. She also welcomes any feminists or allies to join her for one leg of her journey or all of it.
If you wish to join the public planning group go to The Ride: A Woman’s Rebellion
