About Us
No matter how you found your way to our site — as a student looking for resources, a longtime feminist who proudly identifies with the "f-word," or someone simply curious about the myriad ways feminist issues intersect with every other part of life — we welcome you. We hope your visit to Feminist.com is informative and inspiring.
I founded Feminist.com to create a trusted online home for feminist issues, voices and organizations: a place where people could find connection, information, and opportunities to take action. Thirty years later, our mission remains unchanged — yet it feels more urgent than ever. With so many critical issues at stake and so much misinformation clouding the public conversation, we are called to uplift diverse perspectives, share reliable resources and strengthen our collective efforts toward a more just and equitable world. I hope you’ll join us.
Since our founding in 1995, Feminist.com has been a trusted home for intersectional and intergenerational feminist voices. Now, as we mark our 30th anniversary, we’re starting an exciting new chapter. Building on our legacy of connecting and uplifting diverse feminist leaders and organizations, we’re relaunching Feminist.com as a vibrant multimedia hub and ecosystem that offers a dynamic space for conversation, learning, and action.
A new Feminist.com is taking shape—keep checking back for exciting new content and features.

The latest from Feminist.com
At nearly 96 years old, labor leader Dolores Huerta released a statement today, in which she shared that she experienced sexual violence at the hands of Cesar Chavez. “I have encouraged people to always use their voice,” she said. “Following the New York Times’ multi-year investigation into sexual misconduct by Cesar Chavez, I can no longer stay silent and must share my own experiences.”
We’ve always admired Dolores and her extraordinary legacy of fighting for the rights of workers, women, and other marginalized voices — and we were honored by her presence at our 30-year anniversary salon, where this photo was taken. By courageously breaking her silence today, she further exemplifies the importance of standing up for justice.
We stand with Dolores.
We stand with survivors.
And we remain committed to upholding truth, demanding accountability, and building a future free from violence.

📹 Dolores Huerta at Feminist.com’s 30th Anniversary salon at Gloria Steinem’s.
We are still energized from Feminist.com`s 30-Year Anniversary salon at Gloria Steinem`s home. It was an inspiring evening filled with warmth, solidarity, and powerful conversation about why #feminism is still relevant today and what we can all collectively do to move equality forward.
Here are some of the beautiful photos taken by @GiaMcKenna (full album at link in bio). We will be sharing more content and takeaways from this event soon!
Thanks again to @gloriasteinem and @gloriasfoundation for hosting us. As Gloria put it, "We only experience real empathy when we are flooded with oxytocin, which is what happens when we are together. And it`s crucial that we are together in the most diverse ways possible."
Looking forward to holding more conversations like this in 2026 and to carrying this energy and momentum into the new year ahead!
