Our Activists
“Even in the face of powerful structures of domination, it remains
possible for each of us, especially those of us who are members of
oppressed and/or exploited groups as well as those radical visionaries
who may have race, class, and sex privilege, to define and determine
alternative standards, to decide on the nature and extent of
compromise.”
On an ongoing basis, different activists will be featured on the homepage. Click on the featured activists to view their complete profiles.
