![The National Association to Advance Fat Acceptance has served fat people through eleven U.S. presidential administrations.
This is not the first time fat rights work has been an uphill battle, and it won’t be the last.
We have fought for fat community for over five decades no matter who was in the White House, in the state house, or anywhere else in the government.
Not only do we intend to keep up the fight, we intend to fight harder.
