about

the avengers

The Twin Cities Avengers is an all-inclusive queer direct action group committed to dismantling all forms of oppression!

The Twin Cities Avengers is the current local manifestation of a political project that began as the Lesbian Avengers in 1994 in New York City. Queer activism has changed significantly over the past two decades. The Twin Cities Avengers resists systems of domination in ways that relate to the needs of constantly changing local and national queer and transgender communities.

With our broad mission, we are aware that we as a group and as individuals are continually learning about the ways all members of our community move through the world. We work together to create common understandings of racism, ablism, classism, privilege, and other systems of segregation and oppression. This is an ongoing process, and we continue to strive to be accessible (in a broad sense) and relevant to queers of all identities.
