Abstract
Reflecting on the work of the Red Thread Women's Development Organisation in Guyana, which has over two decades' worth of experience in grassroots organising, the author explores what autonomy and connection might mean for poor women. Forging a multiracial unity, while confronting and working through disparities in power among women, is regarded as integral to the struggle for freedom. Initiatives undertaken by Red Thread, such as a time-use survey which allowed women to define and make visible their work, are located within a wider notion of transnational solidarity and mutual support.
