RepresentWomen

Audre Lorde was a feminist, civil rights activist, and one of the most brilliant scholars in recent history. In one of her most notable books, Sister Outsider, Lorde writes, "I am not free while any woman is unfree, even when her shackles are very different from my own." As an intersectional organization, RepresentWomen remembers these words as we continue to fight for women's representation around the globe. #WomensRepresentation #Feminism #WomensMonth
