Introducing Women Creating Change

Introducing Women Creating Change Affilia inaugurates a new column, Women Creating Change, which focuses on the contributions of women practitioners, activists, advocates, and educators whose work is challenging gender oppression, changing women’s lives, and shaping the future of feminism. We encourage a broad interpretation of “women creating change,” and we invite submissions of stories that chal- lenge and inspire us as social workers and feminists. Through this column, we seek to bring women’s stories that may otherwise go untold to our readers. We are seeking original, concise submissions such as the following: • Narratives based on interviews with women creating change locally or globally; • Accounts of the struggles and successes of particular grass- roots women’s initiatives; • First-person accounts linking the personal and the political in practice of all kinds; • Stories of the creativity, resistance, and change-oriented action of women whose voices have not been heard—young women, older women, poor women, and women consum- ers of programs and services. Submissions may be up to six pages, double-spaced, in 12-point font. Send three copies of manuscripts to Miriam Dinerman, editor-in-chief, Affilia, Yeshiva University School of Social Work, 2495 Amsterdam Avenue, New York, NY 10033. Include your phone number, mailing address, and e-mail address. Direct questions about the column and possible ideas for submission to Janet Finn, column editor, Department of Social Work, 109 Rankin Hall, University of Montana, Missoula, MT 59812; e-mail: jlfinn@selway.umt.edu.

Abstract

Affilia inaugurates a new column, Women Creating Change, which focuses on the contributions of women practitioners, activists, advocates, and educators whose work is challenging gender oppression, changing women’s lives, and shaping the future of feminism. We encourage a broad interpretation of “women creating change,” and we invite submissions of stories that chal- lenge and inspire us as social workers and feminists. Through this column, we seek to bring women’s stories that may otherwise go untold to our readers. We are seeking original, concise submissions such as the following: • Narratives based on interviews with women creating change locally or globally; • Accounts of the struggles and successes of particular grass- roots women’s initiatives; • First-person accounts linking the personal and the political in practice of all kinds; • Stories of the creativity, resistance, and change-oriented action of women whose voices have not been heard—young women, older women, poor women, and women consum- ers of programs and services. Submissions may be up to six pages, double-spaced, in 12-point font.
