My Interests

Good workshops, good bands, good friends!!

C.L.I.T. (Combating Latent Inequality Together) is about self-knowledge, self-expression, and self-empowerment. Our aim is to create space outside the mainstream patriarchically approved self-expression. We are wimmin, radical and punk by our own terms, and we know who we are (even if they don't). This strength can outweigh any demeaning, discriminating, greedy or ignorant enduring beliefs and behaviors. C.L.I.T. aims to stimulate conversation between punks of all ages, abilities, ethnicities and all genders to encourage an awareness of the many levels of privilege and oppression. We aim to create an all inclusive community so that everyone can thrive.
