The legendary queer right organizer Marsha P. Johnson said that one person never completely has their rights until all people have their rights. For allies of Black and Southeast Asian women, queer folx and youth, that means that protecting them ultimately protects everyone.
Freedom Action Now is grounded in radical queer Black and Southeast Asian feminism. But our role is not the lead movements that already have leaders, it is to mobils alllies from every background to support the grassroots organizations already doing the work. We follow the political leadership of working class Black, Southeast Asian, and other women and queer people of color. Their struggle is our compass, so we show up, bring resources, and move when they say move.
