I am a Shlucha myself, and I find the title of this article IS condescending to Crown Heights Women. Instead of saying ‘Shluchos Invite Crown Heights Women”, it should have said “Evening of Unity during Convention”. The statement: “Shluchos INVITE crown heights women” can be seen as derogatory and condescending to the Crown Heights Women. A little sensitivity is in order.

So the shluchos have come off their high horses to acknowledge the women who support them financially and house them when they are in town. Wow, we crown heights women actually exist!
