Women United helped spread sexual assault awareness and resources to citizens all across the country. During the summer of 1975 through the middle of 1976, WWU appeared in the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, and the Chicago Tribune. Working Women United continued to publish issues of Labor Pains until early 1976. Later that year Working Women United disband and was replaced by Working Women Institute (WWUI). Working Women Institute (WWI) Theory and Critics of Working Women Institute In the late 1970s there was much discussion of the oppressive structures behind the sexual harassments of Women in the workplace, all rooted in feminist theory. Many feminist theorists often related sexual harassments to rape in that sexual harassment like rape is about power and not sex. For instance, WWI has stated understanding sexual harassments in the workplace to be economic rape and that inequality between the sexes is the basic cause of sexual harassments. WWI strongly supported legal solutions to sexual harassments while other organizations such as the Alliance Against Sexual Coercion (AASC), were more wary of the legal system. Members of WWI have also been criticized for their lack of intersectionality and sole focus on the patriarchy. In 1978, Lin Farley wrote Sexual Shakedown: The Sexual Harassment of Women on the Job, in which she stated patriarchy to be the root of sexual harassment. An organizer from the AASC, Freada Klein, was one of Farley's biggest critic. Klein and AASC, argue that sexual harassment is the product of intersectional oppression. Klein argues that Farley's analysis is too simplistic and overlooks the role capitalism, race, and class play in sexual harassment. Farley responds to Klein in Aegis magazine, affirming her argument that patriarchy is the root of sexual harassments arguing that in capitalism women can now compete with men in a free labor market but not possible if male trade unions segregate training and job opportunities, making it rooted in patriarchy. All in all, Freada Klein acknowledged Lin Farley's ground breaking work and its role in discussion of sexual harassments. Brief Banks The WWU created brief banks in order to file and organize previous sexual assault cases. Through the establishment of brief banks, WWI centralized access to a comprehensive body of legal knowledge on sexual harassment. WWI positioned itself as the leading authority on this subject, thus catapulting them into the public eye. References Feminist organizations in the United States Sexual
