Like many of you, I have found myself spending a lot of energy over the past few years, and in the past few days in particular, feeling a pull. I am craving real engagement with real people. I am craving solidatiry. I want to fill my head and my life with your story. I want to stand with you.
There is a huge opportunity right now for women to come together and create the world that we want to see - through social momentum, and through connection. Not on social media, but in real life. I have been so fortunate to be surrounded by intelligent, thougthful women who have shared their experiences with me, and that has helped me to form my opinions and my character. We need more of that. Real topics. Real thought. Real connection. Real movement. Real justice. Real equity.
Here are some of my favorite quotes from early members:
"I believe in the voice and power of women and want to join hands and strength with others who share the same vision and strength modeled by RBG."
"It's easy to be frustrated with things, but unless I am actively working towards change, I am part of the problem and I don't want to be."
"I want to learn, and grow, and be challenged; listen and participate in building understanding and being supportive of our communities."
"We are the ones we've been waiting for!"
"RBG shaped our lives and we are obligated to carry on and pay it forward."
There are no outside groups, no outside funding behind this organization. It's just you, me, my piggy bank, and our vision.
Let's do this!
