Abortion Is Not a Thought Experiment
Rather than reduce women’s lives to a misogynistic thought experiment for op-ed pages, we should listen to what it is women say they need to lead fulfilling lives, have healthy pregnancies and build thriving families — not punish them.

The way to right wrongs is to turn the light of truth upon them.
About Echoing Ida
We need media we can trust. It should reflect the world around us and help untangle our communities’ most pressing concerns.
But too much of our media ignores or misrepresents the way race and gender impact every part of our lives. That’s why we created Echoing Ida: a home for Black women and non-binary writers to speak truth and be heard.
Our writers follow the legacy of journalist and radical truth-teller Ida B. Wells-Barnett, who wrote unapologetically against the racism and sexism of her time. As thought leaders and skilled communicators for social change, Echoing Ida writers bring the stories of our families and communities to light.
What We Do
