Last week, For The Women had an awesome collab meeting with the members of POWER (Pushing Our Women-of-Color to Excel in the Real-World) to discuss intersectional feminism and how race affects the way women are seen though the lens of society.

Don't forget that For the Women meets at 8pm in the dining hall complex Wednesdays! We'd love to have you and your friends at our next meeting tomorrow!
