Definición

  • Radical cheerleaders have reconceptualized the traditional activity of cheerleading and strategies for promoting social justice. Often dressed in short skirts and combat boots, radical cheerleaders demonstrate against various forms of social injustice (e.g., sexism, heterosexism, environmental destruction, exploitation of migrant workers) and can be seen at globalization protests; women's rights rallies; protests against unfair business or labor practices; gay, lesbian, and transgender rights rallies; and many other left-leaning events.
