Mission

WK? is a global multilingual campaign to center on the internet - the histories, knowledges, leadership, design, and imaginations of the minoritized majority of the world - minoritized and marginalized by historical and ongoing structures of power and privilege. We practice as a feminist anti-oppressions collective striving towards shared liberations through knowledge justice, led by Black and brown women and trans folks from and in the communities and movements we serve, particularly of the Global South and Global Majority.
