Struggle is an untidy process, and our organizing practice embraces the messy complexities of the world and of our own actions. We organize from the understanding that we have the knowledge and ability to address the issues affecting our lives and to effect changes while grappling with the reality of living complicated and contradictory lives. Developing a collective appreciation for uncertain outcomes and slow growth while learning and making mistakes through doing are embedded in what we do. Together, advocacy, movement-building, research and documentation are the strategies that enable us to achieve our mission. These efforts are shaped by feminist methodologies for organizing and research – translated into our realities – that shape our conceptual analysis and methods of action.
