Women’s March Foundation chapters and allied groups helped organize a demonstration against a 26-foot-tall statue of Marilyn Monroe that was formally installed in downtown Palm Springs, California, on Sunday, calling the tribute to the Hollywood icon a “misogynistic eyesore.”
“The statue is designed to look at her crotch and look at her buttocks and take photos. And that is no longer acceptable,” said Emiliana Guereca, executive director of the Women’s March Foundation. “It may have been acceptable in the 1950s, but we are in 2021 fighting the same thing and women are saying enough is enough.”
