To the best of my knowledge, the American feminist movement, with its vast access to university positions, has not offered Hirsi Ali a perch. Perhaps multiculturally correct feminists are ambivalent about challenging Islamist misogyny lest they too be censured as "racists" or threatened with death. Indeed, as I document in my book The Death of Feminism: WhatÂ’s Next in the Struggle for WomenÂ’s Freedom, among most feminists, race trumps gender. Many feminists are now more concerned with the "occupation" of Palestine than with the occupation of womenÂ’s bodies under Islam, and they tend to blame America and Israel for the sins of Islam.
