To the editor: In explaining the anti-Semitic actions of the national Women’s March leadership, columnist Robin Abcarian holds them to an astonishingly low standard. Jewish women, and all women marching for their rights, deserve better.
Credible feminist leaders cannot simultaneously praise the notorious anti-Semite Louis Farrakhan, who has called Jews “termites” and Hitler a “great man,” while calling for unity among women against those who oppress them. Why should Jews be asked to check their identities and values at the door to join their movement? Would that same demand be made of any other minority?
The Chicago, Denver, New Orleans and Washington state Women’s March chapters have recently either dissolved or completely distanced themselves from the national leadership. Women’s March founder Teresa Shook is right: The movement needs new leadership.

No, you cannot admire a virulent anti-Semite and expect to be an effective leader of the Women's March
