These Harvard Business School Women Have Harsh Words for Steve Bannon

[CousinIT]

650 female students and graduates of the prestigious institution signed a scathing open letter to the New York Times about Bannon’s role in the so-called alt-right movement, which “preaches white nationalism, racism, misogyny and hatred,” as well as his executive position at Breitbart News.

We are female graduates and current students of Harvard Business School. We represent a wide range of religions, ethnicities and professions. We are daughters, sisters and mothers; native-born Americans and immigrants; Republicans and Democrats.

“While we do not always agree on politics, we can agree on this: We unequivocally disavow the appointment of our fellow Harvard Business School alumnus, Steve Bannon, as chief strategist and senior counselor to President-elect Donald Trump.”

“We believe that women in the highest positions of power have an obligation to ensure that the mistreatment of women is not blindly accepted and condoned — to use our voice, and our power, to combat the legitimization of hate.
