The Convention will be in Gainesville, FL July 25th-27th!!
"The Southern Girls Convention is an annual grassroots meeting for networking, organizing, educating, agitating, and activism, devoted to empowering women, girls, and transfolks in the South, and to
furthering the struggle for social justice.
Each year’s convention is hosted
by a different Southern community and facilitated by local organizers. Past conventions have brought together hundreds of folks in Memphis, Tennessee; Louisville, Kentucky; Auburn, Alabama; Athens, Georgia;
Asheville, North Carolina; and Baton Rouge, Louisiana.
This year, Southern Girls Convention invites activists from across the country to meet in Gainesville, Fl in July of 2008. Hundreds of activists will meet for a weekend of discussion, action, and entertainment devoted to building a feminist community in the South.
We have weekly meetings, every Sunday @ 7pm at the Civic Media Center, 1021 W. University Ave. Please tell anyone you think might be interested in either organizing and/or attending.
