Women Protesting

Social Justice Workshop in Boston on April 16 – Join Us!

April 10, 2026

Focus Area

The social justice spectrum: Where do you stand? How do you have the most impact? Join WILPF US’s
panel discussion and workshop to explore these questions.


Not all activism is loud, though loud voices take up the most space. Yet space does not equal impact.
Peace builder, advocate, activist, feminist. Where do you stand on the social justice spectrum?


We all have different resources available to us and unique barriers: geography, accessibility, time
constraints, budget. All things considered, how can you have the most impact?


This panel discussion and workshop will explore these questions. You’ll hear from cross-generational
social justice leaders. You’ll be invited to share your experiences and leave with new insights gleaned
from others in the room. And common purpose.


Now more than ever, we need feminist informed peace. Shared power. All voices in rooms where
decisions are made. And outside the rooms we’re not invited into. On the streets, in corporate
boardrooms, in government, in communities.


The Women’s International League for Peace and Freedom US (WILPF US) is hosting this event in
locations across the country. Because now more than ever, how we show up and where we show up
matters. Join us.

Date: Thursday, April 16th
Time: 7 – 8:30 pm ET
Place: Community Church of Boston (Auditorium), 565 Boylston Street in Copley Square

  • Linda Low, Executive Director, Women’s International League for Peace and Freedom US (WILPF
  • US)
  • King Downing, Program Director, New York Healing Justice Program, American Friends Service
  • Committee (AFSC)
  • Peyton Durkee, Union Advocate and Wellesley College Davis Scholar
