Wikipedia:Meetup/NYC/Writing Feminism March2016

Join the Barnard Library for a feminist Wikipedia party! Based loosely around the theme of writing + feminism, we’ll edit existing articles as well as create brand new ones. Topics include queer women, trans women, zine authors, comparative literature, non-binary writers, publishing houses, and writing collectives.

Pizza and intersectional feminism will be provided. Everyone welcome!
