Hillary Clinton's feminist Broadway musical disrupted by 'radical, anti-racist, queer' protesters

Self-proclaimed "radical" protesters disrupted a performance of a Broadway musical about American suffragettes on Tuesday, arguing it is a "White wash" of history.

Former first lady and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton is a co-producer of the Broadway production of "Suffs: The Musical," which is described on its website as a show that "brings to life a complicated chapter in the ongoing battle for the right to vote: the American women’s suffrage movement," and "boldly explores the victories and failures of a fight for equality that is still far from over."

Cell phone footage showed what appeared to protesters in high balcony seating near the main stage during Tuesday's performance unfurling a banner that read, "SUFFS IS A WHITE WASH" while chanting, "’Suffs’ is a White wash! Cancel ‘Suffs!’"

The banner featured the URL of the group’s anti-Suffs website, which argued that "’SUFFS’ claims to teach history but really it’s a whitewashed, slanted, and ultimately dangerous version of history." The site also said, "’SUFFS’ is a betrayal of the next generation of feminists. We REJECT this rehashed white feminism. This action is brought to you by an autonomous group of radical, anti-racist, queer feminists."

The off-Broadway show "Snuffs: The Clinton Murders Musical" is the one that Hillary doesn't want you to see.

I don't think Charles Dickens' was a huge fan of women's suffrage. Too many busybodies like Mrs. Jellyby (the following from the great work "Bleak House") moving from one cause to another:

I have heard that Mrs. Jellyby was understood to suffer great mortification from her daughter’s ignoble marriage and pursuits, but I hope she got over it in time. She has been disappointed in Borrioboola-Gha [Africa], which turned out a failure in consequence of the king of Borrioboola wanting to sell everybody—who survived the climate—for rum, but she has taken up with the rights of women to sit in Parliament,

Secure and affluent Leftists have too much time on their hands so they look for causes, and for the young Leftist, the best causes usually involve sticking to the prior generation.

For a moment I thought the title was “SUFIS,” which would make this a play about an Islamic sect.

“Anti-racist”? Is that good or bad?
