Feminist Generation is Born, A New Feminist Organization for Our Generation
We have arrived. Amid the horrific attacks on reproductive, queer & trans, racial, and all forms of gender justice, we are saying F*** this, and are coming together as one powerful, youth-led feminist organization to finally and fully shut down the MAGA agenda. That’s right. After a democratic vote of our membership, today we announce that The Feminist Front and Young Feminist Party have merged into one united organization under the new name Feminist Generation. We’re bringing together our years of deep grassroots organizing experience from the ground-up to build a real feminism of our generation. A feminism that fights. A feminism that defends, centers, and heals our communities. A feminism that wins.
As feminists on the frontline, we must do everything in our power to block rising authoritarianism through community building and coordinated, sustained action. We take this as our responsibility and refuse to leave women, trans, and queer people behind, especially the BIPOC, immigrant, disabled, and poor among us. Our feminist future depends on us young people. So, let’s change the trajectory of the United States by building together as a united generation to demand intersectional gender justice now.
Together, we can build our generation’s feminist movement. We can build a movement that has the capacity, vision, and resources to organize thousands, and even millions, of young feminists across the country to meet this moment and defend our communities. We can build a robust local chapter network, galvanize national actions, revolutionize the political landscape, and achieve historic feminist wins. We can build a movement rooted in caring for and empowering young women, queer, and trans people that shifts our culture and material conditions.
The success of our #ERANow campaign is proof of the power young feminists have when we build together. In the final months of Biden’s presidency, The Feminist Front and Young Feminist Party led a historic mobilization to demand the inclusion of women and LGBTQ+ people in the U.S. Constitution. We organized hundreds of thousands of people to contact Congress and the President. We coordinated dozens of die-ins, walk-outs, and shut-downs across the country. We hosted teach-ins and trainings that educated thousands about the ERA and how to fight for it. We got arrested shutting down Constitution Avenue and picketed outside the White House in a historic snowstorm for ten days. We reached millions through viral social media campaigns and coverage in several national outlets. By the end, President Biden declared the Equal Rights Amendment the law of the land. This victory would not have been possible without the visionary coalition-building by and among young feminists.
We now face an administration built on and perpetrating supremacy. The MAGA far-right is rapidly attacking our communities. ICE raids are terrorizing immigrants and their loved ones. Trans people and people seeking abortions, especially young people, are being criminalized and stripped of life-saving healthcare. DEI programs and anti-racist education are being dismantled in our schools and at work. Working class people are pushed deeper into poverty while the rich become richer. Student debt is climbing nationally, with women, especially women of color, disproportionately in debt. Trump and his MAGA agenda are utilizing hate, fear and control to take our rights and dismantle public goods. We write this declaration of unification on the anniversary of the Dobbs decision. We know the struggle for intersectional feminist justice and liberation is a matter of life and death. While the conditions are tough, our resolve and vision are tougher. As young feminists, we have arrived, and we are here to say WE ARE NOT GOING TO TAKE IT ANYMORE. Our communities deserve care, dignity, and safety, and the resources to live and thrive. Our generation is fed up. But we will not despair, we will organize.
Feminist Generation is committed to resisting the assaults on our lives, our bodies, and our democracy, through sustained grassroots action and solidarity. We are building a powerful, youth-led movement for gender justice, queer justice and racial justice, one that centers the most impacted and rises to the fight.
They are scared of us together, of our power when we unite and fight for someone we don’t know. As women and queer people, we know we are the leaders we have been waiting for, that every person on every block has the power to change the world. It is through collective action that we get to liberation.
Feminists to the front, it’s time for feminism of our generation.
Welcome to the movement.
Welcome to Feminist Generation.
