Welcome to the feminist disability rights struggle online! FRIDA is a Chicago-based feminist disability rights group founded in 2005, in response to a wave of crimes against women with disabilities in Illinois. We are all about taking action and building an international network of like-minded folks who care about feminism and disability rights.
Sick and tired of gender-based disability discrimination? Then FRIDA is for you.
