Our relationship to feminism and our world is bound up with a proclivity for the percussive, as we divorce ourselves from “correct” or hegemonic ways of being in favor of following the rhythm of our own heartbeats. In other words, what others may call audacious and crazy, we call CRUNK because we are drunk off the heady theory of feminism that proclaims that another world is possible.
YES.

Yes! A group of young women who are not afraid of their intelligence! Now I wonder if you all are not afraid of listening to elder sister woman wisdom? That’s the challenge with youth, no matter how they describe themselves.
I’m in to hear your young voices.

Word up. As a young woman, I could use it.

This is a very interesting perspective that I have never thought about; just the name, “The Crunk Feminist Collective” got me questioning what this could possibly be about. The introduction was very concise for a blog that utilizes “crunk” to describe itself- whereas I’m used to thinking about Lil’ John going wild in a music video with a cup that reads “PIMP JUICE.” As a female I admire that the introduction focused on establishing that this blog seeks to strengthen women and their feminist ideas to help society evolve because I think females, of all races, need to learn how to think in a more feminist manner in order for them to truly utilize their minds and bodies. In my blog I want to exude the same idea of being your woman through eye opening situations.

I think I’m in love too! I’m 22, with a lot of passion and no idea where to put it. Thanks for articulating what are normally confused emotions about gender in our world and creating a safe space for all of us^^

This is one of my favorite blogs. As a young black educated feminist woman exploring my identity it is great to know that there is such a thought provoking and real blog out there for women who identify similarly. Thank you. How do I get more involved?

This 71 year old white school teacher is thrilled about discovering Crunk Feminism. I have always felt more loyalty to women than to race. Women must rise until every office that has a door to close contains 51% women in its group of decision makers. This is essential to preserve our planet, to honor our need for clean air, water and safe food. If women are sharing equal power at the top, the needs of our children will be taken more seriously and power-posturing will have to give precedence to cooperative planning. So, keep on Crunking your way into power!!

So amazing to read powerful women expressing themselves! There is a massive underrepresentation within the media, black women have a much smaller platform of expressing themselves then black men (and men in general). Keep Crunking!
