History as Our Guide
We don’t celebrate the Foremothers to escape to the past, but because they were remarkable women. They faced challenges and built change, often under conditions far more restrictive than ours today. From them, we can gather inspiration, will, and resilience to keep pushing for solidarity, unity, and justice, for all.
*About “BIPOC”: we know the acronym is evolving and can feel reductive and misaligned for many. We use it here as a familiar shorthand.

Twice a month, on the 1st and the 15th, meet three to four Foremothers gathered around a theme, with reflection and action points that you can return to. No spam, no guilt, just inspiring women to discover and celebrate.
"When you learn, teach. When you get, give."
