arts and crafts.

regardless of their gender and sexual orientation.


Agitate is a queer, Ottawa-based organization for indigenous, mixed-race and
women of colour. Agitate's aim is to provide queer visibility within
racialized and ethnic communities; outreach; social programming; education;
transnational perspectives; and anti-racist activism. Agitate will also
forge links with other organizations who share a similar vision of social
justice. Agitate was borne out of recognition of the intersecting nature of
the oppressions and experiences we face as women, as queer persons, and
as indigenous peoples and persons of colour.
