CLEVELAND, Ohio—The co-founder of liberal activist group Codepink took to the streets outside the Republican convention on Thursday to protest "war on women" issues such as equal pay and said that Hillary Clinton's history of paying men more than women shows that she is not a feminist.

Jodie Evans, who co-founded the vocal anti-war group in 2002 and opposes Hillary Clinton for president, stood outside the Quicken Loans Arena to highlight the Republican Party's role in the war on women, but said that she was aware of Washington Free Beacon reports that Clinton paid men more than women in her Senate office, the State Department, and her presidential campaign.

"You don't have to tell me—I know," said Evans when asked about the reports. "When you think of what it is to be a feminist, it is about equality."

"As a feminist, I don't find her a feminist," said Evans.

Evans wouldn't say that Clinton is part of the war on women because it is "not about people," but said that Clinton is part of a "system that doesn't support feminism."

"The war on women is not about people, it's about a system," said Evans. "I would say that Hillary Clinton supports a system that doesn't support feminism."

During a larger protest earlier in the day aimed at highlighting rhetoric from Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump and his running mate Gov. Mike Pence (R., Ind.) that the group labeled anti-woman, Codepink members became visibly agitated by Trump supporters that were yelling slogans such as "Hillary for prison."

"We don't like Hillary Clinton either," yelled a member of Codepink in response.

Codepink protestors have been highly visible during the Republican convention and the group says it will step things up for next week's Democratic convention in Philadelphia.

"None of us support Hillary Clinton," said Evans. "How could you be in Codepink and be pro-Hillary? We're a peace organization."
