That’s why we started Unfairly Canceled
Friend,
You know that discourse and debate are the cornerstones of a well-functioning democracy. And that mob rule and the bigotry of cancel culture can lead to a free society’s demise.
Through Independent Women’s Forum’s Unfairly Canceled ([link removed]) program, we are putting a human face on cancelation. Thanks to generous and rational people like you, IWF is aggregating these stories about innocuous actions for which people have inappropriately lost their jobs, been canceled by their doctors, or been kicked out of school.
Sadly, most people who fall victim to the bigotry of cancel culture are not as lucky as stars like Jason Aldean, who turned his cancel culture experience into a top chart opportunity, nor do they have the resources to challenge their bullies or navigate the devastating consequences.
That’s why they need programs like Unfairly Canceled ([link removed]) to give them a voice, a platform, and access to advocates to flood the zone and call out bad actors.
It’s most often the ordinary people — like all of us — whom the bigots want to make sure are punished and silenced for holding different views. They don’t care who they hurt or how unfair they are being.
Take Marlene Barbera ([link removed]) for instance.
She has been bravely battling breast cancer for the last 12 years with the support of medical professionals at Richmond Family Medical Clinic in Portland, Oregon.
But now, because she expressed concerns over a transgender flag that was hanging in the waiting room, in the fight of her life she needs to find a new treatment team.
Rather than create a public stir, she sent what she thought was a private message through her MyChart portal.
Unfortunately, the office violated her privacy, passed it around, and treated her with disdain rather than the compassion she deserved.
A few weeks later she was shocked to find out she had been discharged and banned from the clinic — and all Oregon Health Science University family clinics — for politely explaining her concerns.
Marlene was canceled from vital medical care by the woke mob because she dared share her personal beliefs privately and without malice.
Standing up for her moral beliefs also cost Ashley Nope ([link removed]) her dream job.
Following the heartbreaking loss of her little sister to a chronic medical condition, Ashley’s dream was to work in a children’s hospital so that she could provide other families with the same top-quality care her sister received over the years.
She fulfilled that dream and got her dream job working as a surgical technician.
Though she made clear her personal opposition to “gender-reassignment surgery” for children to her supervisors and knowing there were other techs who were willing to take those assignments on her behalf, one morning she found that she was actually scheduled to participate in a "reassignment" procedure on a 13-year-old child.
“It just seemed so wrong to me, to do something like that to a child, where they cannot consent on their own,” she explained.
Her boss didn’t give her the choice – she was informed that if she didn’t assist in the surgery she would be let go and would remain on bad terms with the entire hospital system at-large, making it incredibly difficult to continue in her dream career.
Like so many others, Marlene and Ashley have experienced the unfair and unjust consequences of cancelation.
With your commitment and support, we can continue to speak up for the canceled and stand up to the bullies who seek to silence and destroy them. ([link removed])
