Consciousness Raising Groups |
The CWLU had several chapters that functioned as consciousness raising groups(commonly called CR Groups). These groups discussed peoples' personal lives and helped empower members to make difficult personal and political choices.
|
Some CWLU members belonged to local chapters which functioned as semi autonomous groups within the CWLU. Some examples were the Hyde Park Chapter, the Friday Night Chapter, Brazen Hussies and Mrs. O'Leary. Some of these were primarily conscious raising groups. Others planned political strategy. Some combined both.
