Creating spaces to grow and amplify our voices for the liberation of oppressed people everywhere.
AFIRE is a community organization that creates a political home with and for Filipinx/a/os* to confidently organize toward the liberation of immigrants, workers, domestic workers, queer and trans people, and oppressed peoples everywhere.
*We use Filipinx/a/o as shorthand for Filipinx/Filipina/Filipino to honor all gender identities.
As an organization founded by Filipino immigrants, we understand a legacy built by and for the people. We have evolved our practices and frameworks to continue centering people and communities for the liberation of all peoples from oppression. Through historical and expanding engagement, our communities of focus include immigrants, domestic workers, queer people, and trans people.
How We Move
AFIRE navigates this work guided by a set of frameworks, such as our values, that keep us accountable to our community and one another. Through our collective leadership practice, we work together to integrate our values into our everyday activities and programming.
Our Team
We are a diverse, multi-generational group committed to creating spaces to organize and engage with Filipinx/a/o people around the issues that affect us.
