Description
An account of the resource
Feminist Action at Middlebury, commonly referred to as FAM, has existed since the early 90’s when it was called the Coalition for Feminist Consciousness (CFC). After the DU mannequin incident of 1988, there was a surge of feminist activism in which The Coalition for Women/FAM was created. FAM’s mission is to explore and question the construction of gender and gender stereotypes and how they relate to gender-based violence, as well as address and explore a variety of issues relating to various feminisms. FAM continues to be present on campus today and has worked closely with Chellis House since the house opened in 1993. Over the years, FAM has engaged in comprehensive feminist activism on topics ranging from menstrual and reproductive justice, anti-sexual assault activism, and body positivity, to school, local, state, and national politics, and advocacy for trans rights and womxn of color.

Description
An account of the resource
This Campus article discusses Vermont's Title X funding. In August of 2019, the Trump administration published new Title X funding stipulations in a move to severely limit access to abortion care. This article includes information about FAM's involvement with the Title X cuts, and their activism in support of Vermont's Proposition 5, an amendment to the State Constitution that is being deliberated in the Vermont Legislature. If passed, Prop 5 would guarantee that reproductive liberty is an unalienable right for Vermonters.
