In August 2008, thirty women from around the country gathered in my living room.

We vowed to draw a line in the sand against sexism and misogyny. We vowed never to be silent again.  We vowed to put the spine back in the women’s movement!

Two years later, we’ve become a national movement. We stand for:

  • Supporting women.
  • Ending sexism.
  • Finding common ground.

We’re Celebrating:

Check out our SENSATIONAL WEBSITE.

You can share your story, blog, volunteer, visit Women to Watch, and so much more.

Thanking You:

We want to thank you, our supporters, for your activism and devotion.

We want to also thank the women in the media for giving us a national voice. The women producers at CNN, PBS, FOX and MSNBC. The women editors and reporters at HuffPost, The Daily Beast, The Washington Post, POLITICO, Forbes, MORE, The Daily Caller and so many more.

And Moving Forward:

Watch for our new video series, “Searching for Sexism” coming this Fall.

We ask for your continued support.  We’re just getting warmed up!

Onward!!!

Amy Siskind, President

    Happy Birthday and thank you for all that you do!

    (I just realized– TNA’s birthday is the same as Bill Clinton’s. How about that?)

    Some of what is on the site needs proofing- grammatical errors, etc. Just saying…

    Top 10 Youtube 2011 videos. None misogynist. This is what free market content looks like. Corp Media does NOT reflect our culture. http://www.gossipcop.com/youtu.....11-rewind/
