Valerie Solanas is now a cult icon for radicals who identify with her S.C.U.M. Manifesto, and other writings. Feminists like Ti-Grace Atkinson, NOW New York Chapter president, described Solanas as "the first outstanding champion of women's rights." At her trial, another NOW member, Florynce Kennedy, declared Solanas "one of the most important spokeswomen of the feminist movement." Musicians have even written songs inspired by Solanas, such as Psycho Daisies' "SCUM Manifesto" and The Manic Street Preachers' "Of Walking Abortion".
