A brief overview of your interest group (be sure to put its name in bold in the first sentence) and the scope of the article goes here.[1]
The following list of sections should serve as a loose guideline for developing the body of your article. The works cited in references 2-5 are all fake; their purpose is to serve as a formatting model for your own citations.
History
The name, Feminist Majority, comes from a 1986 Gallup public opinion poll in which 56% of women self-identified as feminists. Founder Eleanor Smeal chose this name to raise consciousness that feminists are the majority.
Founding
The Feminist Majority Foundation was founded in 1987. The FMF is a cutting edge organization dedicated to women's equality, reproductive health, and non-violence. The FMF utilizes research and action to empower women economically, socially, and politically. The organization believes that feminists - which encompass all ages and genders - are the majority and must be empowered.
Current objectives and activities
The Foundation's mission is to create innovative, cutting-edge research, educational programs, and strategies to further women's equality and empowerment, to reduce violence toward women, to increase the health and economic well-being of women, and to eliminate discrimination of all kinds.
Organizational structure
This section should describe the group's organizational structure, including its principal leadership positions and their current incumbents.[2]
Achievements
This section should recount the group's major achievements, including but not limited to legislative and/or legal victories.[3]
Public perception and controversies
In developing this final section, be especially careful about maintaining a neutral stance and tone. Your aim should be to document the public's perception of your group and/or any controversies in which it is or has been embroiled without weighing in with your own opinion about them.
