MAY 2021 IS FAT LIBERATION MONTH!

We welcome you to the home of our first Fat Liberation Month!

We are celebrating ourselves, and we invite you to join us for the celebration!

Note: this is the archival page for FLM 2021.

FLM will be celebrated again in August 2022. Stay tuned for more info.

Graphics in bold colorful letters reads, "FAT" with the "A" as a triangle; below that reads, "LIBERATION MONTH"

Our mission at NAAFA is to empower fat people through education, advocacy, and support. Throughout May 2021, we’ll be hosting numerous special events that show the world how fat people are thriving despite society’s biases and prejudices.

We’ve planned lots of fun and educational activities for fat community, and we can’t wait to see all the ways you choose to celebrate Fat Liberation Month yourselves. Check out our calendar of events to see what we have in store!

We also invite fat community to join us in recognizing Asian-American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) Heritage Month, as well as Jewish Heritage Month and Older Americans Month. It is of particular importance that we support our friends and loved ones in AAPI community at this time when so much vitriol and violence are being directed at their community in the U.S. Please check out our monthly Anti-Racism Resources feature on our blog. This month’s edition focuses on dismantling racism aimed at AAPI community.
