Feminist Anti-War Resistance

Feminist Anti-War Resistance is a grassroots collective of Russian feminist activists formed on February 25, 2022, in direct response to the full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine. Their Patreon, launched December 15, 2023, serves as a crucial platform for supporting Ukrainian women and the broader Ukrainian population in their fight for self-determination. The collective focuses on amplifying Ukrainian voices and advocating for their political demands within a feminist framework. With 75 total members and 39 paid supporters, the initiative has generated an estimated $371 in revenue, demonstrating significant grassroots support within a relatively short period. The group’s unique approach lies in its intersectional lens, combining feminist activism with a powerful anti-war stance, offering a perspective rarely seen within the broader anti-war movement. Their work highlights the gendered impacts of conflict and the vital role of feminist solidarity in times of crisis. This Patreon community underscores a commitment to both immediate aid and long-term support for Ukrainian resistance efforts.
