Paradigms

• Make/find playlists of feminist songs by genre, language, and mood. (Some of the playlists on spotify have songs that are questionable. Possibly make playlists.)

• Catholicism (21%)

Rules

• Appropriately prosecute people who harass feminists online by laws broken. (ex. encouraging suicide is a felony)

Information Flows

• Voter Guide website idea: list judges, attorneys, and candidates and rate their record on women’s legal issues.

Stock and Flow Structures

• Expand assistance and protection to those who are publicly feminist such as journalists and activists, as well as regular people who became homeless for supporting intersectional feminism. This can look like sharing information resource guides, creating an emergency mutual aid fund, or even developing housing programs, shelters, and intentional communities.
