Black Feminisms Forum make their statement to AWID's International Forum.
This article is part of 50.50's in-depth coverage of the 2016 AWID Forum held on 8th -11th September 2016 in Bahia, Brazil.
This year, the year the United States of America may elect its first female president, we will hear more about glass ceilings than perhaps any other time. But at the 13th AWID International Forum, with so much emphasis on shared movements and the ‘politics of friendship’, our focus was not on the barriers a woman breaks in her ascent to the ‘top’ of society, but on how we feminists reorganise society together.
