Crunck Feminist Collective

The Crunck Feminist Collective (CFC) provides a haven for gay, heterosexual, and hip hop generation feminists of color. They create a rhetorical community where they may share ideas, argue and fight one another, express feminist opinions, and offer support to one another.

The CFC is an online blog community for scholar-activists from various professional backgrounds to share their work. The word ‘crunch’ comes from the adjectives ‘crazy’ or ‘chronic’, and when combined with the word ‘feminism’, it implies that individuals become drunk on the word’s intricacy. As a result, the site addresses thought-provoking issues while bringing up contentious social justice issues.
