ACS Medway group creates safe space for all women of colour

Understudy delegate Deborah Mensah, top of the ACS Medway association group, has intensely made a women’s activist society, which advances social opportunities and extraordinary facilities for women.

In an interview with Deborah Mensah, she says “To be a part of the feminist society is to feel whole. What I mean by this is the very point of connecting with other people who think like me instead of others who look down on me, never have I felt like feminism – especially in the era we live in – will make me feel whole. Speaking about it, being around it and even acting upon it.

A feminist society is a safe place. A place where women can connect with other women, especially women of colour – about what it is to be a black womanism and how this dialect has marginalised us within society and why. Deborah Mensah is the president of the society. She states proudly “I am an intersectional feminist because I solemnly believe that as a woman of colour, black women especially have been marginalised within society in many ways.” Mainstream feminists create a toxic concept of gender which is portrayed in a bad light which neglects the LGBTQ & women of colour, the point is not hating and bashing men – the point is gaining our womanhood back and creating a space for women to be able to speak freely without discriminatory, sexist and stereotypical views.
