The Exodus Collective of The Passion Center is a sacred space for those who refuse to walk alone in the fight for justice, healing, and liberation. This Women’s History Month, we are gathering for a powerful series on "Sisterhood as an Act of Resistance." Across history—from the biblical matriarchs who defied empire to the hidden and heralded movements of Black and Latina women—sisterhood has been a force of survival, renewal, and collective power.
We will explore the ways in which women have held each other up in biblical narratives, historical struggles, and contemporary movements—proving that solidarity is not just a comfort but a strategy. In a world that seeks to isolate, divide, and diminish us, we will reclaim sisterhood as a spiritual and political act. Together, we find strength to persist in what God has called us to do.
Why Sisterhood?
In a culture that often pits women against each other, we are choosing a different path—one of radical love, accountability, and mutual empowerment. As Audre Lorde reminds us:
“Without community, there is no liberation.” – Sister Outsider
bell hooks teaches us:
“Sisterhood is powerful. It is the essence of solidarity, the spirit of a shared struggle.” – Ain’t I a Woman?
Paola Ramos reminds us that unity is key in defining our identities and our collective futures:
“We are in this together—our struggles, our joys, our pain, our healing.” – Finding Latinx
And as Ada María Isasi-Díaz wrote:
“We are each other's keepers. Our liberation is bound together.” – Mujerista Theology
This month, we will engage in deep conversations, share sacred texts, and uplift the power of sisterhood as we remember the women who came before us, resist forces that seek to silence us, and restore the communal bonds that make us unshakable.
Speakers include our very own Dr. Liz Ríos along with Dr. Marlena Graves, Pastor Gail Song Bantum, Dr. Natalie Munoz and Rev. Jennifer Watley Maxell.
