There’s a quiet kind of power that lives in storytelling, in voices that refuse to be silenced, in truths that rise even when the world tells us to shrink. The FEMINIST is a bold archive of the voices shaping our now and dreaming our next. It’s radical. It’s tender. It’s yours.
Join us as our next Feminist Programs Lead – driving bold initiatives like the Feminist Magazine and Transformative Justice Institute, with care, creativity, and feminist vision.
A social movement of black feminist activists who amplify feminist political discourse in Kenya to raise feminist political consciousness and resist oppression.
Our organisation stands firmly against capitalism, imperialism, patriarchy, heteronormativity, and fascism, maintaining unwavering solidarity with oppressed communities worldwide.
We are the co-conveners of the nationwide #EndFemicideKE march in January 2024 and organisers of #TotalShutDownKE, as well as co-hosts of the #HerLifeMatters protests against femicide and gender-based violence, which have mobilised over 50,000 protesters since 2019.
Rooted in feminist theory and shaped by our lived experiences, our strategies and activities are inspired by Audre Lorde’s wisdom, emphasising the importance of transforming our silence into language and our language into meaningful action. Our feminist solutions, therefore, come alive through the journey from silence to theory to practice.
To mobilize, organize, and build power with Black women to dismantle systems of oppression and advance our collective liberation.
We envision a world where Black women in all our diversities live free from systemic violence in both public and private life, with full autonomy, safety, and dignity.
We, Feminists in Kenya, stand in unwavering solidarity with the people of Palestine. Guided by our feminist responsibility to confront oppression wherever it occurs, we denounce the violence, displacement, and censorship targeting Palestinian lives and voices. Silence is not protection. We affirm that the struggle for Palestinian liberation is a feminist issue.
