Announcing Feminist Pride Day 2012

feministcomingoutday:

On March 8, 2011, the 100th anniversary of International Women’s Day, campuses across the nation celebrated with us by joining together for Feminist Coming Out Day and the online Feminist Portrait Project. On the eve of the new year, co-founders Abby Sun and Lena Chen are proud to announce that the campaign will be relaunched in collaboration with the Feminist Majority Foundation. Renamed Feminist Pride Day, the event will be incorporated into campus programming by college partners throughout the United States.

Interested in participating in 2012? Get in touch with Laura Kacere, FMF National Campus Organizer, at lkacere@feminist.org, and stay tuned for more updates!

I’m super happy that they’ve changed the name. Saying that someone is “coming out” as a feminist is appropriative. Thanks for changing it! 

Also the Feminist Majority Foundation is really interesting - I went to their National Young Feminist Leadership Conference in 2011.
