I would love resources by trans and queer feminists to counter TERF rhetoric.

If you could find some, that would be great. Though a part of me is not sure whether it would be better suited to f/Trans, or just to both.

I've often found this a useful resource as a jumping-off point for explaining TERFism and how it's a hate doctrine and not a 'radical' feminist position

Cool, I'd be interested to hear what others think about this page - and hope that one of the mods adds it.

In fact, we could probably use a whole feminist wiki.

I so rarely engage feminist stuff these days because queerness seems to do it harder. Hm.

I suggest some material from women of color; authors of the Chicana & Womanists movements.

Sounds cool, what specifically though?

Also, what is a "womanist" movement"?

Womanist is Alice Walker's coined term for Black Feminism.

I would have to go through my collection but the Latina version of this is the Mujerista movement. Chicana is specific to Mexican-American women.
