'One of the publishing world’s most respected independent feminist voices is closing just as the country has been plunged into a state of feminist emergency, in the form of the impending Supreme Court ruling striking down Roe v. Wade.' MsReads via Slate
Bitch Media will shutter next month, ending a 26-year run as one of the publishing world’s rare independent, feminist voices. From humble origins as a zine in ‘90s, Bitch went on to influence a generation of feminist media, growing to encompass not only a print magazine but a website, podcasts, and a college speaker series. But all of that was no match for the realities of 2022: As
the organization released on April 12 explained, “despite incredible effort, we have concluded that we are unable to sustainably continue creating the quality content that our readers and supporters expect.”The timing here really stings: One of the publishing world’s most respected independent feminist voices is closing just as the country has been plunged into a state of feminist emergency, in the form of the impending Supreme Court ruling striking down.
At the time we started Bitch, feminism was still not something that people were scrambling to associate themselves with. But it’s true that particularly with the rise of the feminist blogosphere and social media as well, feminism became something that was demystified for more people. For Bitch, for a really long time, we didn’t really think of other feminist outlets as our competition. We really treated it as a rising tide lifts all boats.
