Quotations

“Speaking as feminists, we are opposed to any war in the Persian Gulf where young men and women lay down their lives in a conflagration whose cost in blood and dollars will be prohibitive. We remember Vietnam. . . This is not a war to defend democracy. . . This is not a war for any moral purpose, only for oil and power. . . For 20 years we have said war is a feminist issue; it still is.” (letter by Steinem, Millet and Atkinson, Jan. 15, 1991; photo women's media center)
