Organizers of a yearly ‘women’s march’ event in Eureka, California, are set to cancel their own event after it became clear that those who would march were “overwhelmingly white.”

In a press release, organizers explained that the march needed to be cancelled on account of lacking representation of the broader Humboldt County community where the event was planned.

“Up to this point, the participants have been overwhelmingly white, lacking representation from several perspectives in our community. Instead of pushing forward with crucial voices absent, the organizing team will take time for more outreach. Our goal is that planning will continue and we will be successful in creating an event that will build power and community engagement through connection between women that seek to improve the lives of all in our community.”

The decision to cancel the event by march organizers can leave no doubt that the feminists who planned this California march will go to any length necessary to advance diversity and inclusion, even to the point of canceling their own event. Sadly for them, it appears many “crucial voices” fail to understand why the Humboldt County Women’s March is so important, to the point where the organizers have had a consistently hard time getting people who aren’t “overwhelmingly white” to come to the annual event.

The organizers are said to be considering an alternative event in March to commemorate International Women’s Day.

Many members of the community who are less than thrilled with the national Women’s March’s affiliation with anti-Semite Louis Farrakhan and other figures widely seen as hateful may be relieved that this year’s Eureka Women’s March isn’t going forward.

Matt Rivitz, the nominal founder of far-left deplatforming organization Sleeping Giants, issued a detailed public apology to a woman who has recently identified herself as a co-founder of the group. Nandini Jammi went public with her claims of being sidelined as a key figure within Sleeping Giants last week, claiming that Rivitz, a San Francisco ad executive, had “gaslighted” her out of public acknowledgment for her role in the organization.

Rivitz’s public apology, released Monday, appeared to largely vindicate her claims, acknowledging that Jammi was a co-founder of the group who had never received the due credit she claimed to have deserved.

Sleeping Giants is a leftist deplatforming organization that seeks to defund conservative websites by haranguing advertisers over their ad placements on platforms such as Breitbart. Rivitz’s acknowledgment of sidelining the group’s female co-founder- coming only after Jammi published a Medium article that accused Rivitz of erasing her contributions to the group.

“I want to show you how a woman of color almost disappeared from the movement she built, and what you can achieve when you refuse to follow the rules your white male “leader” sets for you,” said Jammi of Rivitz’ selfish desire for self promotion. Jammi also published a series of arrogant remarks she attributes to Rivitz, in which the leftist anti-free speech activist curtly told his younger co-founder to know her place.

Curiously, Sleeping Giants is registered as an LLC in California, making it likely that the deplatforming group is a for-profit entity. Rivitz, who went to great lengths to hide his identity as the figure behind the group, was only exposed as Sleeping Giants’ operator after a Breitbart News investigation. It’s still totally unclear who is funding the organization.
