Indigenous women and women of color in all levels of elected office are transforming what it means to govern and lead their communities across the country. In 2020, we saw the highest number of women of color elected to US Congress, and we also celebrated the milestone of electing our first female – and first woman of color – Vice President of the United States. Women’s Democracy Lab believes that more support for Indigenous women and women of color in office will lead the way for a bold vision of our democracy.
At WDL, we are African, Arab, Asian, Black, Indigenous, immigrant and refugee, Latinx, multiracial, Pacific Islander, LGBTQIA, and Two Spirit people supporting, celebrating, and advancing a vision of liberation and belonging for all. Come join us!
When women like us win elected office, we have an opportunity to radically re-imagine political leadership. Together, grounded in our unique histories, identities, and stories, we create a world liberated: a world where we live safely and can be our whole and authentic selves.
