Amanda Marcotte at Pandagon strikes again on class politics, the South, feminism that doesn't speak its name, and country music.
There's a movement right now to get arrogant, misogynist Southern Baptists into pharmacy jobs where they can deny women their right to birth control. On a national level, this can be fought politically, debating and disputing the idea that one has a specific right to enforce anti-woman religious beliefs on customers. But the real battle is cultural, a battle to get women to realize they have a right to their damn drugs so that never can the pills be denied without a woman raising holy hell over it. And that energy is there. I believe it because I am a Southern woman who raises hell and listens to Loretta Lynn raising hell.
Just read the whole thing.
