Noted: The Madison Bans Off Our Bodies march was cosponsored by Indivisible Madison and the University of Wisconsin-Madison BIPOC Coalition; however, on Friday, the UW-Madison BIPOC Coalition announced its rescindment from the event.
“We are officially rescinding our cosponsorship and endorsement of this event because the primary organizers have repeatedly failed to recognize their privilege, be inclusive of all folks with uteri, and understand that BIPOC, queer, disabled, and/or low-income folks do not owe cis-gender, middle-class white women their support, nor labor in a movement that white women co-opted,” the organization said in a statement.
