Artist Statement:
I believe the women who demanded they be heard — defying society and authority, marching in the streets, even spending time in jail if necessary — to win their right to vote in the Women’s Suffrage Movement would have joined in this year’s Women’s March.
They would have been among the hundreds of thousands of women who took to the streets wearing “Pussyhats”, standing up for women’s rights and sending a defiant message to President Donald Trump in response to (among other things) the abusive actions and mindset revealed by a 2005 video and recording* which surfaced in October 2016.
Some people think the name “Pussyhat” is vulgar. I, on the other hand think the hats and their name are just fine, and that the vulgar and unacceptable thing is having a President who thinks and behaves in such a way. Our politicians and leaders should be held to a much higher standard.
*A transcript of the 2005 “Access Hollywood” video was attached and was part of this statement.
