La troisième vague
Richards is a co-founder of the Third Wave Foundation, which is now known as the Third Wave Fund, a national organization for young feminist activists between the ages of 15 and 30. The Third Wave Fund co-founded by Richards promotes gender justice, a movement to end patriarchy, transphobia, homophobia, and misogyny. The Fund creates a space where people have the comfortability to perform their gender based on how they want others to perceive them. Richards believes that gender justice enables youth to gain knowledge and learn how to fight against social norms placed by our society. Being able to teach the youth how to become leaders in society is a goal within the Third Wave fund. The Third Wave Fund gives the tools to those who identify as being in the LGBTQ community to have the resources and ability to lead powerful movements. Richards truly believes in the youth because she knows that the future is dependent on them.
