Can We Save Africa: Clitoraid

Even though we were stunningly successful in convincing Good Vibrations to drop their support of Clitoraid in a short 10 days, Clitoraid is still out there raising funds through dubious adoptions of African women’s clitorises.  Hence this page whose mission is to keep alive a public archive of Feminist challenges to Clitoraid.  Let it never be said that African women did not complain.  THIS African women certainly did complain!

This page tells my version of the story of a committed group of feminists who changed a tiny piece of the world.  There is another wonderful overview of the Clitoraid/Good Vibrations saga in the SF Appeal here where, as you can see, the challenge to Clitoraid was much more just an individual one.

I  decided to create a separate page chronicling the story of our collective engagement with Clitoraid because I hope that archiving a history will offer a context for the next wave of mobilization against the Raelian cult and its activities especially in Africa.  This is NOT THE DEFINITIVE STORY of the challenge to Clitoraid and I welcome any contributions to create as broad and detailed a picture as possible.
