KPI is an intersectional feminist arts organization dedicated to creating more just and radically connected communities by amplifying women’s voices with literature, publishing, education, and innovative community engagement.
KPI does anti-racist, decolonizing, anti-homo/transphobic work to get at root causes of systemic oppression. Kore is one of the country’s longest running feminist presses.
