Discussion group for feminist minded women in the mid Hudson Valley area. Hopefully we will also re-activate the Greene County NOW chapter

Male supremacy must end. Oppression and violence is not natural nor inevitable and neither is patriarchy or any other kind of kyriarchy (a neologism meaning a collection of interlocking and intersecting systems of oppression). Radical feminism, in the truest sense of the word 'Radical', is about going to the root of the systems of oppression that we all participate in and perpetuate, creating change from the ground up and making the world a better, equal, non-oppressive place. We believe change …

A trailblazing socialist feminist organization, Radical Women is the revolutionary wing of the women's movement and a strong feminist voice within the Left. Immersed in the daily fight against racism, sexism, homophobia, and labor exploitation, Radical Women believes in multi-issue organizing around the needs of the most oppressed. We view women's leadership as decisive to social change and train women to take their place in the forefront of the struggle. Radical Women is an autonomous, all-wome …

This group lists the community activities at Freedom Hall of two separate socialist feminist organizations: Radical Women and the Freedom Socialist Party. Everyone welcome!

Looking for feminists and strong women to get together and enact change. NOTE: THIS GROUP IS TEMPORARILY ON HOLD. We hope to get back up and running in the near future. Feel free to leave input in the comments of this event or via email to either of the Organizers. The goal of this group is to make like-minded friends, enjoy intelligent conversation on the issues that matter to us, and come up with creative ways to enact change. We believe that there is strength in numbers, so we hope to assemb …

Comics for Bitches is an inclusive environment for women, queers, and feminists to gather and discuss comics and graphic novels in an open non-judgemental environment. We began as a group when we discovered we all loved the medium of comics but mostly read them on our own. We hope to foster a community of graphic novel reading that inspires us as creatives, readers, hobbyists, illustrators and writers. CFB is meant for women of all gender expressions and types. We are focused on creating an envi …

We discuss topics such as the role of feminism in our lives, equal rights, politics, women achievers and feminism, current events from a feminist perspective and standing up for what we believe in. Discussions are intelligent, non-confrontational, mutually-respectful and entertaining! Our meetups are a smart, safe women-only place to get together and share feminist ideas.  To get directions …

A group for Pagans, polytheists, occultists, and others, of many different paths and all genders, who revere Lilith as a Goddess. For most of the past few thousand years, Lilith was regarded as a demoness and nothing more. In the 20th century, She was reclaimed by some Pagans and feminists as a more positive figure, representing female independence, sexuality, and vehement opposition to tyranny. Some other modern occultists revere Her simply as a chthonic figure, rather than as a revolutionary. …

Calling all WOMEN who LOVE HORROR. “This is a group for GALS the get GIDDY for GORE in Horror... Cinema Theater Theory Convention and beyond. I've started this group because I love (and study) horror,  I'm a woman and I know there are more of us out there.”

We plan to have regular social gatherings, so you can make friends, enjoy uninhibited feminist conversation, and most importantly casually discover issues you share as women in NYC and the ways that we might solve them. We hope these purely social gatherings will foster camaraderie, wild brainstorming, and inspire subsequent events and actions. NOW has always been a grassroots organization that relies heavily on its almost completely autonomous local offices. Those offices, like NOW-NYC, are off …

Tired of being presumed guilty because you're a man? Tired of the presumption that women are victims and cannot possibly be victimizers? Tired of witnessing or being victimized by women's abuses of their privilege? Tired of watching movies that valorize women who bully men, who villify them, who slap them? Tired of flirtatious women's sense of entitlement to your chivalrous attention? This group is for men who want to raise awareness of those aspects of our country's gender double standard that …

The group name is inspired by the New York Times Bestseller of the same title, written by the hilarious Caitlin Moran, which argues that feminism still has a place in this world, and that we should embrace it! Let's get together informally and redefine what it means to be a modern feminist woman. No background in feminism required; just an interest in meeting and learning from each other while having a good time.

The aim of this Meetup is to provide a forum where men and women can share and learn the views of others on the many ways in which gender roles have an impact on our lives. The goals of Feminists and Masculists ring hollow if by definition, they marginalize the concerns of the other gender. Despite all the changes to societal expectations for each gender in the past century, certain traditional patterns remain. Some of these traditions amplify innate differences, while others arguably represent …

Hoping to start an all-crafts-friendly group in the greater New Haven area, with an emphasis on crocheting and knitting. As you can see by the description, I am looking for people who are into the Riot Grrl ethos (though the group is not meant to be gender specific in any way). Would like to find a place to meet where we can listen to music we all enjoy, while we share our experiences and techniques in the crafting world. All levels of skill are welcome- never started? I'm sure someone will be a …

After a breakup or divorce, many women feel Lost. After my divorce, I lived in a dark place, and I was able to raise myself up with the Power within myself. I always meet young women who have come out of marriages, separations, ex-fiances, or bad breakups, and are living on the other side, Empowered, with no regrets, Embracing their New Lives. I want to bring those Women together, so that we can all be supportive and share our love and inspiring stories with one another. This is not a sob fest, …

Meet other local people to discuss Goddess Spirituality, the divine feminine or feminist spirituality. The group is also open to all pagan, wiccans, witches, herbalists, healers, and magickal practictioners. All are welcome.

we often claim ourselves as atheist, agnostic, secular humanist, environmental activist, feminist, skeptic, confusionist, pro-choice, sex-positive, socialist and so on. But, often we refuse to apply our faith in action, when others do. This group will discuss how to apply our faith into real world decision makings as a student, father, single, couple, grand father, grand mother, worker, employee, employer, corporation, enterprenure, priest, teacher, professional, mother, single parent, gay, lesb …
