Women of Color and Allies Summit: 
LINKING ARMS IN DANGEROUS TIMES

February 20 - 22, 1998 Washington National Airport Hilton, Arlington VA

SPONSORS

This Summit will celebrate our commonality, share our ideas, and create a framework to ensure the values, vision, and inclusion of women of color in all aspects of the feminist movement. So much of the right wing backlash against our progress will have a disproportionate impact on women of color, from affirmative action to immigration, welfare to reproductive rights. The feminist movement must grow in a way that is inclusive and diverse in order to reach our full potential.
