What's a Feminist?

[G. Wickwire]

"A feminist is...a person (male or female) that identifies and rejects
all oppressive ideologies such as sexism, racism and homophobia within 
society, as well as within themselves." 

That's my super-broad definition...but I'm sure we will talk about this in
depth at the roundtable discussion.  Great idea Meghan!
