Progressive Views Plus: The Patriarchy is Alive and Well

Newly released by the Heritage Foundation is a report that asserts that the promotion of competitive sports for girls and women “formed a core element of a broader project to remake female character itself — producing a new woman who would be more aggressive, assertive, dominant, and less deferential, less graceful, and less oriented toward motherhood and traditional feminine graces.” Reports like this show our progress in women’s rights is not set in stone. We must fight the battle every day.

Progressive Views: Woke is Wonderful

The attacks on “Woke” are disgraceful. Radical right-wing Project 2025 politicians continue to attack a word that best translates into love of one’s fellow human beings. The dysfunction threatening our democracy requires immediate action to address partisan extremes. Let’s come together to bring back the norms and values that make our system work.

Progressive Views: DEI: What’s Going On

DEI initiatives are the right thing to do, but the current administration is using them as an cynical excuse for almost everything that goes wrong in the country and to distract us from ongoing efforts to willy-nilly dismantle government and government regulation.

Progressive Views: The Insidious Project 2025

Project 2025 (P25) is the published plan for an “ideal” America if a conservative wins the 2024 presidential election; they call it the “Mandate for Leadership: The Conservative Project.” P25 is spearheaded by the Heritage Foundation and is supported by more than 80 organizations. You need to be aware of P25 because it’s a plan for how the next Republican administration plans to gut our federal institutions and remake the nation into an authoritarian state.
