The speakers at the Women’s March on Washington called clearly for intersectional movement building. Following the leadership of Women of Color is not an abstract directive. Here are 25 Black Women and Black queer people whose work I will read, watch, listen to, respond to, and be accountable to:
- Alicia Garza
- Angela Davis
- Brittany Packnett
- Charlene Carruthers
- DeRay Mckesson
- Imani Gandy
- Janet Mock
- Kamilah Wilingham
- Kim Katrin Milan
- Kimberle Crenshaw
- Leslie Mac
- L’lerrét Jazelle Ailith
- Marc Dones
- Marissa Johnson
- Maura Bailey
- Melissa Harris Perry
- Mia McKenzie
- Michelle Alexander
- Opal Tometi
- Raquel Willis
- Riana Elyse Andersen
- Sonya Renee Taylor
- Tiq Milan
- Wagatwe Wanjuki
- Yavilah McCoy
And I will also follow #Our100 Women of Color leaders for the first 100 days of this dangerous federal administration. I am deeply grateful for this leadership.
