On Friday, 1/20/2012, the spokes council voted to kick out its second member for committing an act of violence. Nan Terrie, of Strong Women Rule Working Group, was kicked out for violent behavior. According to Sean McKeon, who placed the proposal before the body, Ms. Terrie one week prior had punched someone. Other members of spokes accused Ms. Terrie of verbal aggression and of inappropriately interrupting meetings. This comes as the Occupy Movement drafts a safer space agreement which is supposed to cover a code of conduct that those in Occupy must adhere to if they want to be welcome in Occupy spaces.

Be sure that one who systematically engages in verbal and physical violence is no advocate for violence victims.
ReplyDeleteAlso important to mention that there are plenty of Anti-Rape activists who remain in Spokes Council.
ReplyDeleteOWS =/= Occupy. Very important. Glad they are setting examples and finally creating safer spaces at this location.
