Promoting Intersectional Feminism in Chicago
Fempowerment Chicago
Who we are
Created in November 2016, Fempowerment is Chicago’s first student-led city-wide intersectional feminist organization. We work through:
fundraising for organizations/causes
encouraging direct action by linking young activists to protest groups
creating space for young Chicagoans (elementary through high school) to discuss social justice and self-love
What we do
Discussions
Protest
Workshops
"There is no such thing as a single-issue struggle because we do not lead single-issue lives"
Audre Lorde
