🌟✨ CIJ is Closing, but its Spirit Lives On! ✨🌟
Dear Community, Advocates, Disruptors, Comrades,
With a heart full of gratitude and memories to last a lifetime, we bid farewell to the Center for Intersectional Justice (CIJ). It's been an incredible journey filled with learning, commitment to social justice, radical solidarity and boundless love.
While this chapter may be coming to a close, the spirit of justice and equality that defines us will continue to thrive through the actions and words of all the people who are part of the wider movement of intersectional justice. Together, we've challenged norms, shattered barriers, and uplifted voices that have long been silenced.
As we bid farewell, let's carry forward the lessons learned, the bonds forged, and the dreams of a more just and loving world. Our work doesn't end here—it evolves. Let's continue to stand together, speak out on causes that matter, and build bridges to grow our movements. Endings should be celebrated and seen as a portal for evolution, transformation and growth. Very excited to see what will emerge from that freed space.
Thank you for your incredible support the past 7 years. Your passion, dedication, and unwavering commitment have been the heartbeat of our organization.
In solidarity,
Emilia, for the Center for Intersectional Justice (CIJ)
