About 2\/2<\/a>: WHO WE ARE:<\/p>\n

INCITE! is made up of grassroots chapters and affiliates across the U.S.; other collectives working on particular political projects such as police violence, reproductive justice, and media justice; a national collective that works to leverage this grassroots organizing on a national and transnational platform; an advisory collective that helps increase the capacity of national organizing; and thousands of members and supporters.<\/p>\n


\nWHAT WE DO:<\/p>\n

INCITE! works with groups of women of color and their communities to develop political projects that address the multiple forms of violence women of color experience in our lives, on our bodies, and in our communities.<\/p>\n

We identify \u00ab\u00a0violence against women of color\u00a0\u00bb as a combination of \u00ab\u00a0violence directed at communities,\u00a0\u00bb such as police violence, war, and colonialism, and \u00ab\u00a0violence within communities,\u00a0\u00bb such as rape and domestic violence.<\/p>\n

Chapters and affiliates engage in strategies and projects that address both personal and state violence, acknowledging the ways that oppressions intersect in the lives of women of color. Some of those projects include producing a women of color radio show, challenging the non-profitization of antiviolence and other social justice movements, organizing rallies on street harassment, training women of color on self-defense, organizing mothers on welfare, building and running a grassroots clinic, supporting communities to engage in community accountability strategies, and much more.<\/p>\n
