About Us

We are Katrina survivors. We are women of color and white women. We are Palestinian and we are Jewish. We are anti-war activists and labor organizers. We are college professors and students; poets and performance artists; janitors and office workers. Our people come from many countries, and many are landless. We make films, write books, and walk picket lines. We build and support organizations and one another. We belong to hundreds of groups, committees and community-based institutions. We are lesbians and non-lesbians, elders and youth. We are angry and we are hopeful. Some of us are mothers, all of us are daughters, Ellas’ Daughters.
