Over the past week,
women, people of color, trans and queer folks
and many others across the US
have been targeted in over
400 reported acts of aggression and hate.
This is unacceptable.
Feminist Frequency is founded on the belief
that media matters;
and that there is a very real connection
between the representations and values
embedded in our popular media
and the abuses we're currently seeing
throughout the country.
Last week, I posted a video
responding to the election results,
and reminding us all
that we have to call out and address
sexism, racism, and all forms of bigotry
especially as they pervade mass media.
That's what Feminist Frequency does.
And our work is critical right now.
We've heard from you that,
like us,
you're feeling grief and helplessness and rage,
and are looking for ways
to actively combat this hate.
So, throughout the month of December,
we'll be sharing ways that you can plug in
and get involved in the struggle
right now, and for years ahead.
Because of your enthusiastic belief in our work,
Feminist Frequency has achieved so much
over the past four years.
But we still need your help.
Your contribution at this crucial time
ensures that we can keep progressing
over the next four years.
Your donation today can help us continue
to do this vital work.
Let's support each other by challenging
unjust representations of individuals and groups,
and by standing up against
hatred and harassment in our communities.
