Women's Action Coalition
Woman's Action Coalition (WAC) was a feminist open-alliance that sought to address issues of women's rights through direct action.〔(New York Public Library Women's Action Coalition Records )〕 WAC was founded in New York City in 1992 and inspired the formation of subsequent chapters in various other US cities as well as in Canada and Europe. Inspired by the Aids Coalition to Unleash Power (ACT UP), and Women's Health Action and Mobilization (WHAM), WAC conducted protests, sit-ins, and educational campaigns and viewed civil disobedience as a mode of direct action.〔(Women's Action Coalition--Chicago Records )〕
The mission of the group was is to make a change and take action against the barriers restraining the rights of women. There are Women's Action Coalition groups located all over the world. 〔 >Although many are located in the United States in the cities of Boston, San Fransisco, Houston and Los Angeles. 〔There are also groups located in Europe and Canada. 〔
== WAC of New York ==
On January 28th, 1992 a group of 75 to 150 women came together in New York City to talk about their frustration with their issues concerning the rights of women. They named this meeting "Women Strategizing in the 90's."〔 The immediate reason for the meeting was to discuss their anger that Clarence Thomas was named Supreme Court Justice even after Anita Hill's testimony that Thomas had assaulted her.〔 The women decided to start a feminist activist group called The Women's Action Coalition."〔 They planned on modeling their group after the AID activist group ACT-UP and the Women's Health Action Coalition."〔 Their fist action took place six days after that meeting at a sexual assault trial involving students from St. John's University."〔Their Logo was a Blue Dot after the blue dot the media would put over the rape victims face when displayed on television"〔 Their members founded the Drum Core which performed at all of their action movements.〔 They also came up with the slogan "Let women define rape!" "〔 By the second meeting they had 300 members. "〔They demonstrated at many other rape trials."〔
