From September 14 to October 1, 2017, Larrie will be having a rummage sale. A portion of the proceeds will go to the Black Women’s Defense League.
Black Women’s Defense League is a Dallas-based, revolutionary womanist coalition that provides political education, self defense training, and resources and rescue to abused, underserved black women and marginalized genders. BWDL raises awareness, refines solutions, and prepares our members to divest from, combat and replace all forms of oppression with equitable, intersectional systems that are dedicated in serving the African Diaspora and the collective interests of a liberated society.
In addition to helping to rebuild elderly and underserved black and brown communities that were hit by Hurricane Harvey, they focus on:
Domestic Violence Intervention and Rescue
Rape Counseling
Pregnancy Counseling
Sexual and Reproductive Wellness Education
Political and Social Education
Literacy Classes and other Community Programs
Financial and Economic Literacy
