Revision as of 01:35, 9 July 2014

This is a list of explicitly feminist geek groups (and events, etc) based on discussions coming out of Dropping the F Bomb on the Geek Feminist blog.

To qualify for this list, the group/event/etc must use the word "feminist" or "feminism" in publicly available materials, eg. on their homepage or "about" page.

Hacker/maker spaces

  • Double Union - "Double Union is a supportive community for feminist activism. We are intersectional feminists, women-centered, and queer and trans-inclusive."
  • Seattle Attic - "We are a feminist, woman-centered, trans- and queer- inclusive space for tinkerers, makers, crafters and hackers of all genders."
  • Flux Lab??? - neither their self-description nor code of conduct say that they are, but "feminist" appears a couple of times on their homepage in more general contexts
  • Spanning Tree (still forming) - "Spanning Tree will be a feminist hacker/maker space for people who identify as women in a way that is meaningful to them, as well as agender people. We welcome people of color, trans and genderqueer women, and people with disabilities."

Tech Meetups

  • Computer Anonymous - "We think feminism is a good thing. Discussion of how to make computer more inclusive is welcome. Claims that this "has gone too far" aren’t."
  • Why Security - "We think feminism is a good thing. Discussion of how to make security more inclusive is welcome. Claims that this "has gone too far" aren’t."

SFF conventions

  • WisCon - "World's Leading Feminist Science Fiction Convention"

Online communities

  • Geek Feminism (obviously)

Geek media

  • Model View Culture -- there's no "about" page and the homepage just contains whatever is in the current issue (which included the word "feminist" at least once, at the time I checked); the copyright line in site footer reads "© 2014 Feminist Technology Collective, Inc."
