Prominent Feminist Groups Mysteriously Silent While Taliban Targets Women In Afghanistan

By  Ashe Schow

Prominent feminist groups in the U.S. have been silent regarding the ongoing disaster in Afghanistan, particularly in relation to the horrors Afghan women and girls will face under Taliban rule.

A sweep of national feminist groups, their leaders, and well-known feminists found little to no recognition of the situation in Afghanistan, even as these same groups and people claim the United States is a misogynist country.

For example, the National Organization for Women (NOW) has said nothing about the situation in Afghanistan, tweeting about only voting rights and abortion over the past week. The organization’s president, Christian Nunes, has only retweeted comments about the Equal Rights Amendment, while saying nothing about Afghan women and girls.

Similarly, the Feminist Majority Foundation has also remained silent on the ongoing disaster, even though the organization blasted former President Donald Trump in 2020 for failing to include women’s rights in an agreement his administration signed with Taliban leaders as part of a withdrawal process. Feminist Majority has said nothing since Friday, and before that it was only tweeting about COVID-19 and abortion.
