Land Acknowledgment
Everyone has the right to live in a society free from violence.
Everyone has the right to be treated with respect and dignity.
Working together with others in our community is essential to ending violence and creating a healthy community: “No one is free while others are oppressed.”
Feminism, anti-oppression and recognition of intersectionalities of oppression influence our work.

Feminism is for everybody
“Imagine living in a world where there is no domination, where females and males are not alike or even always equal, but where a vision of mutuality is the ethos shaping our interaction. Imagine living in a world where we can all be who we are, a world of peace and possibility. Feminist revolution alone will not create such a world; we need to end racism, class elitism, imperialism. But it will make it possible for us to be fully self-actualized females and males able to create beloved community, to live together, realizing our dreams of freedom and justice, living the truth that we are all “created equal.”
