Our current time of crisis calls for unity. On October 24th, we invite all feminist, abolitionist, reproductive justice, and anti-imperialist organizers to join us to have a meaningful, open conversation; to learn from each other; to generate ideas for taking action now; and to build a broad, cohesive movement going forward.
SUGGESTED DONATION (collected at the door): $15 to go toward event expenses, and any additional amount collected will be held in reserve for joint actions emerging from the event or a charitable cause agreed upon by the co-host groups.
SPACE IS LIMITED. If you register and then can't attend, please email us in advance so we can offer your spot to someone else who wants to attend.
