at rallies and protests. At a recent march in Philly, NOI brothers tried to demand that women stand behind them for "protection." They tried to control the direction of the march, despite never attending organizing/planning meetings. In Baltimore some women comrades were calling out the names of Black women who were murdered by cops, and were told "today is about Freddie Grey" by the men at the rally.

The hate for women, gays, and trans folks is one of the reasons why we can't get free as a people.
