The Last Of The Sea Women
South Korea - The haenyeo, or "sea women," are a community of female free-divers from Jeju Island, South Korea, known for their ability to harvest seafood without the aid of modern diving equipment. This unique matrilineal society has existed for centuries, with historical records dating back to the 17th century indicating the prominence of women in the island’s fishing economy.

Big Vilma Espin
Brooklyn, NY - Vilma was born on April 7, 1930, in Santiago de Cuba, into a well-off family. She saw the injustice around her, the corruption, the suffering of the working class, and as a young woman, pursued a degree in chemical engineering at the University of Oriente. Vilma became deeply involved in the 26th of July Movement, working closely with Frank Pais in the underground resistance against Batista’s dictatorship in Cuba.

Womens Only Gym Allows Men
Brooklyn, NY - Black women should reconsider their fervent support for trans ideology, as this so-called "marginalization" is manufactured—not genuine, not organic, and deeply influenced by the overconsumption of pornography. True solidarity prioritizes women’s safety and lived experiences without compromise.

Not Our Crimes
Brooklyn, NY - We all inherently know that women cannot produce semen; yet, we see absurd headlines stating, "Woman raped in bathroom by another woman, semen found at the scene." Authorities grapple with confusion, uncertain about how to classify and incarcerate the perpetrator simply because he identifies as a woman.

Black Girl Bullied By Black Girls
Bronx, NY - For a young Black woman like Cordilia James to secure a position as a journalist at such an esteemed institution is no small feat. It’s an achievement that should be celebrated, a sign of progress in an industry where Black women are still vastly underrepresented. But instead of rallying around her success, many Black women chose to focus on her wig

Tammi Terrell
Staten Island, NY - Born Thomasina Winifred Montgomery in 1945, she grew up in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and had an early affinity for music. By the time she was a teenager, her talent was undeniable. She performed on the local circuit before signing with Scepter Records at 15.

Woke White Men
GUEST SUBMISSION: Galway, Ireland - When Ireland passed self-identification laws in 2015, there was barely a discussion. No debate, no referendum, no public scrutiny—just a law that allowed any man to declare himself a woman with no medical transition, no safeguards, and no regard for what this would mean for actual women.

The 4B Remedy
Brooklyn, NY - One woman in my comment section said that the male species are not human, and after hearing the story of Gisele Pelicot, I couldn't agree more with that sentiment. The idea of the male species being the original artificial intelligence resonates with me more and more each day as I hear countless stories of women and children suffering brutal violence at their hands.

Why I Left Haiti
Brooklyn, NY - I was born in Haiti, but I left. Not because I wanted to, but because I had to. Like so many other women, I knew that staying meant either enduring the unbearable or dying at the hands of men who see our pain as a tool of power.

Black Men In Charge
Brooklyn, NY - If reparations are to be a conversation, what exactly are they owed for? When given the reins to power, there has been no mercy, no organization, and no true commitment to nation-building. The responsibility now lies within these nations to address their own internal failures rather than point fingers outward. The world watches as Haiti and other Black male-led countries descend into chaos, and one question remains: reparations for what?
In a dystopian future where the Supreme Court has overturned Roe v. Wade and reproduction is no longer a right—but a mandate—one woman’s rebellion sparks a movement. When acclaimed filmmaker Bridgetta Greene is recruited by a shadowy ruling class to produce pro-natalist propaganda, a script leak triggers a radical uprising.
Brooklyn, NY - Many Black women still hesitate to identify with feminism — not because feminism "doesn't speak to them," but because the label has been tarnished through decades of community shaming, media misrepresentation, and the sidelining of Black women's voices within mainstream feminist spaces.
