Dyke March in Chicago ejected Laurel Grauer, Eleanor Shoshany Anderson, and a third woman for flying Star-of-David flags. Editorial: “[T]hough intersectionality cloaks itself in the garb of humanism, it takes a Manichaean view of life in which there can only be oppressors and oppressed. To be a Jewish dyke, let alone one who deigns to support Israel, is a categorical impossibility, oppressor and oppressed in the same person.” Anderson: “I was thrown out of Dyke March for being Jewish.” #USA #politics
