Persisters NYC is a social networking feminist collective that was launched in January 2017 as a responsive remedy to the wave of changes in the American socio-political landscape. Born out of a need for a space to serve the multidimensional identities of New York women, we hope that by gathering together we can foster open discussion and propose the solutions that will help address the issues of sexism, racism and violence that impact our lives. We aim for a better understanding of these unique obstacles by dedicating ourselves to an intersectional and progressive approach. We value and encourage the shared learning that can come from listening to the distinctive voices of others and centering the voices of women from marginalized communities.
