The National Organization for Women is very excited about this launch! #NYF
I have been working on a big new project at work and now I can finally tell you all about it!! NOW Young Feminists has been a dream for me ever since I began at NOW and to see it go live and become a reality is so surreal! I wanted to create a space within NOW for millennials and Gen Z activists to be able to not only highlight issues important to them but to have space for their voices to be heard in the national narrative for the fight for Womens rights. If you know a feminist 35 and under who would like to get involved, send them this post and tell them to check out www.now.org/nyf/ for more info! Let’s start to shape the national narrative to represent us 💪🏻
