Greetings!
Each year, Visions in Feminism seeks to provide a forum for diverse perspectives within a feminist framework to keep the movement relevant, inspire action by its attendees, and destabilize patriarchy and other forms of oppression. The ‘2012 Visions in Feminism Conference on March 24th still has workshop slots open, and we have extended our submission deadline until 2/17/2012!
