About Us

The Organization for Feminist Research on Gender and Communication (OFRGC) promotes dialogue, discussion, research, and scholarship concerned with women, feminism, gender, oppression, and social change. OFRGC seeks to advance understandings of the intersections of gender and race, ethnicity, nationality, ability, sexuality, and class, including transgender politics, masculinity, dis/ability, labor, transnationalism, postcolonialism, and critical race theory.

OFRGC is a Western States Communication Association (WSCA) affiliate, sponsors programs at the WSCA convention, and publishes a journal: Women’s Studies in Communication.

Membership includes:

• A subscription to Women’s Studies in Communication

• An invitation to the annual OFRGC reception at the WSCA convention

The Organization for Research on Women and Communication is against hate, including bigotry, misogyny, racism, homophobia, transphobia, and any form of violence. We support the rights of all human beings, regardless of race, gender, ability, citizenship, religion, gender identity/expression, or sexuality to be included, treated fairly, and prosper.
