Biography
Women Against Violence Against Women (WAVAW), a feminist activist organization, was founded in 1976 in Los Angeles by anti-pornography
activist Marcia Womongold. The Los Angeles chapter of WAVAW was formed out of an ad hoc coalition of feminist groups who joined
forces to protest a film called "Snuff" and the advertising campaign for the Rolling Stones album, "Black and Blue."
WAVAW first began as a reaction to the Los Angeles debut of "Snuff" in March of 1976. This film was advertised as having been
made in South America where "life is cheap" and claimed to show the actual murder and dismemberment of a woman. In Southern
California this film opened in 22 theatres in Los Angeles and Orange County, including the Mann Theaters. Due to WAVAW protest
over the ad and the film, "Snuff" was withdrawn from circulation in the entire Southern California area one week after it
opened.
In June of 1976, Atlantic Records-a Warner Communications, Inc. (WCI) subsidiary-put up a billboard on Hollywood's Sunset
Strip to advertise the Rolling Stones' album "Black and Blue." It depicted a beaten, bound young woman saying, "I'm 'Black
and Blue' from the Rolling Stones and I love it!" WAVAW in cooperation with the California state chapter of the National Coalition
for Women (NOW) protested, and the sign was subsequently removed during the night before the group held its press conference
beneath the billboard on Sunset Boulevard and picketed at the site.
In response to pressure from WAVAW, Atlantic Records scaled back its "Black and Blue" advertising campaign but did not eliminate
it. WAVAW's campaign to stop the use of images of violence against women as an advertising campaign began. When Warner, Elektra
and Atlantic Records--subsidiaries of Warner Communications, Inc.--failed to reply to demands that they cease and desist in
the use of images of violence against women, and sex-violence, as an advertising gimmick, WAVAW, in coalition with California
state chapter of the National Coalition for Women (NOW) called a boycott of all WEA labels (Warner Bros., Reprise, Elektra,
Asylum, Nonesuch, Atlantic and Atco) in December 1976. The WCI boycott generated letters from thousands of individuals and
organizations such as NOW chapters, YWCA's, and rape crisis hotlines demanding that WCI companies institute a responsible
advertising policy. The letter-writing campaign developed as a follow-up to WAVAW's slide show, a presentation of offensive
album covers that had been shown to hundreds of women's groups, schools, universities and community organizations across the
country.
In 1979, after three years of national protesting, presenting community slide shows, letter-writing, phone-calling, attending
shareholders' meetings, leafletting and boycotting, WAVAW secured a policy from Warner Communications, Inc. stating they had
agreed to cease and desist with the use of images of violence against women and sex-violence as an advertising gimmick. As
a result of the agreement, WAVAW and California NOW ended a three year boycott of WCI Records. On November 8, 1979, WAVAW
and WCI made joint statements to the press at dual news conferences in New York and Los Angeles announcing that an agreement
had been reached. The agreement announced on November 8, 1979, was presented to the public in the form of a joint press statement,
which was negotiated by representatives from WAVAW's national coordinating committee and from the office of David H. Horowitz
who is in charge of WCI's record division.
Subsequently, the Los Angeles chapter of WAVAW turned to local projects involving protests against films and campaigns against
advertising including the United Artists film Windows in November/December 1980 and Playboy's First Amendment Awards in 1982.
