[1]Women's March
John, a feminist future is only achievable if it
includes everyone.
Understanding the intersections of race, class, sexuality, and gender are
the foundation of that future: not only in how we live these realities
individually, but in how we are connected, and how we do our work together
for justice across these lines of difference. Many of us are looking to
engage with these histories, gain new tools, and meet this moment. Some of
us for the first time, and some with renewed commitment to activism.
That’s why we’re launching the Feminist Futures live event series to help
more folks engage in these tough, but much-needed, conversations to shift
our culture towards justice. This series of political education webinars
is in collaboration with Planned Parenthood, MomsRising, Auburn,
UltraViolet, Supermajority, NARAL, and United States of Women, with a set
of accompanying tools as well as invitations to action.
The first webinar of this series will be Feminism Beyond White Supremacy:
Where We Have Been and Where We Need to Go featuring [ [link removed] ]Barbara Smith and
[ [link removed] ]Amy Sonnie. This session will delve into ‘bright spot’ moments of
feminist organizing in resistance to white supremacy. It will explore
questions like: “What is intersectionality? What does identity politics
really mean? What does it mean to be an anti-racist feminist?”

Sonnie on Thursday, July 30 at 5pm ET/ 2pm PT, please RSVP now.

Fighting for this future has always been the center of our work, but it
has never felt more urgent than right now.
The crises we’re currently experiencing — from police brutality, to
COVID-19 — have awakened many of us to the systematic oppression that
persists today. Many of us are starting to ask ourselves what role we want
to play in this turning point of history. And we must get even more folks
to engage in this conversation around the intersection of race, class,
sexuality, and gender and our shared fate in this time if we want to
unlock the feminist future we envision.
We need to engage with all the roadblocks and successes in the history of
organizing diverse women’s movements. Over the course of this series, we
will focus on lifting up some of the following themes:
* Tools and practices for white women who want to work to dismantle
white supremacy and collaborate for justice with Black, Indigenous,
and people of color (BIPOC) women during a time of social change
* Organizing to build new systems of public health and community safety
to replace existing systems that are broken beyond repair
* Pushing our focus towards understanding how to build community and
activate us all to unite and transform our neighborhoods, towns,
states, and country for justice
* Connecting our marchers with opportunities for action and our ongoing
work for the long haul
[ [link removed] ]Each of us has a unique role to play in this moment of history.
Including you,
John. Will you join us for our
first Feminist Future Webinar this Thursday and put in the work we need to
bring this vision to life?
Together,
Women’s March
