Afro-feminism

Afro-feminism is a movement that focuses on addressing the unique challenges faced by Black women, recognizing how race and gender intersect to create specific experiences of discrimination and inequality. It emphasizes the importance of understanding and valuing Black women’s identities, histories, and contributions, while challenging both sexism and racism. Afro-feminism advocates for social justice, equality, and empowerment, highlighting issues like racial bias, gender-based violence, and representation, often within broader feminist and racial justice frameworks. It aims to create inclusive spaces where Black women’s voices are heard and their experiences acknowledged.
