Welcome

Hello!
Speaking Our Truths originated at Simmons College in Boston, MA as a space for women to engage in dialogue outside of the classroom.


We want to develop a community and sisterhood that embraces the concept of identity politics, the personal as political and the political as personal that came out of third-wave multiracial feminism. As women of all colors, sexualities, socioeconomic backgrounds and spiritualities we come together to build bridges in a society that structurally keeps us divided.

This blog is a collaboration in solidarity of each others struggle. We are witnesses to each others silence.

If you want to be heard we would love to listen. Please contact us to be a contributor. Essays, articles, poems, spoken word and other forms of expression are encouraged.

Welcome!

Yours in struggle,
Women of Consciousness
