Dallas Feminists
|
The purpose of the Dallas Feminists meetup is to create solidarity and support for local women (we are stronger together), to provide a platform for debate and disagreement (we recognize and respect the diversity of feminist thought), and to initiate a movement toward activism and social change (we see the need for action, our rights will not be handed to us, we must fight and struggle for them). If you are passionate about social justice, if you care about women and their lives, if you are critical of the status quo and want to understand the issues that affect women, then join the Dallas Feminists meetup group.
