This week I want to think about the structures of our love.
In 1977 the members of the collectively organized Black Feminist Lesbian Socialist Combahee River Collective said:
“We believe in collective process and a nonhierarchical distribution of power within our own group and in our vision of a revolutionary society.”
Let's talk it about it for real. What do you think about collective structures, collective decision-making? Talk about it here:

For more history on a collective organizing project, that responded to violence against women check out the podcast for this past Saturday's Be Bold Be Red: http://brokenbeautiful.
And if you live in Atlanta, join in a conversation guided by QBG Lex about strategies for the future of feminism with black feminist scholar superstar Beverly Guy-Sheftall and white feminist icon Gloria Steinem:
