Waves of Feminism
Waves of feminism relate to specific periods of time in which there was an identifiable objective that feminists were fighting for. Each wave of feminism has distinguishable aims and use different means in order to reach these aims. The waves act as a rough timeline for the feminist movement (in the English-speaking world).

The Hysteria Collective
The Hysteria Collective is a collective of creative women, trans and non-binary people who are creating content for likeminded people, independently. It is a platform for sharing the work of creatives, helping them to create a network of other creative people, building intricate projects promoting social issues and encouraging them to venture into the creative arts, unapologetically.
It is also an excellent place to share work that can ultimately make up part of a portfolio, be that writing, art or photography. Check out their website: thehysteriacollective.com
