Jocelyn Crawley is a radical feminist thinker who resides in Atlanta, Georgia. She enjoys thinking, talking, reading, and writing about strategies for resistance that women and girls can utilize to create worlds marked by subjectivity and self-actualization. Above all, she believes that the most radical act a woman can engage in is reading radical literature.

Amie Ichikawa was incarcerated at the Central California Women's Facility in Chowchilla for five years. She realized there is a major lack of re-entry services for women and limited accessibility to those available services upon release. She is one of the founding members of womaniiwoman who's goal is to empower incarcerated women to stand up for themselves and become actively involved in campaigning for their own freedom.

I am an academic in education, who had experienced an activist environment within the university, and in sports, and who saw that the psychological support for the student was fragmented and replaced with the ulterior motives of disorganized teachers. Curriculum that is bound in woke political activism destroys the natural development and security of the student. When the rights of the student are secondary to the activism of poorly developed adults, entire cultures become broken.

Patricia Sornosa is a comedian, writer, actress and feminist communicator born in Manises (Valencia) in 1977. As a comedian, she cultivates a direct and very personal style. Hers is a combative humour that makes no concessions to political correctness, with a certain inclination towards the most controversial topics. Patricia continues to write and perform her comedy shows in venues and theatres, offering the audience her sarcastic opinion on the issues that matter to her, regardless of the fact that no one has asked her for it.

Kara Dansky is a lawyer, public speaker, and feminist. She served as president of WDI USA from 2021 to 2024 and on the board of the Women's Liberation Front from 2016 to 2020. In 2023, she published The Reckoning: How the Democrats and the Left Betrayed Women and Girls. She currently writes on Substack at The TERF Report.

I signed the Declaration for the historical account, to join in efforts to bring attention to the harms of gender and violence against women. I want to end patriarchy's subjugation of women, I want to peak women to patriarchy and how it impacts their everyday lives - specifically the Declaration's statement: "To modify the social and cultural patterns of conduct of men and women, with a view to achieving the elimination of prejudices and customary and all other practices which are based on the idea of the inferiority or the superiority of either of the sexes or on stereotyped roles for men and women" I believe this is where patriarchy will end, by changing the social patterns and peaking women to the world they are living in and are mostly unaware of the social grooming and covert abuse they experience under patriarchy. Bringing attention to feminist organizations that we need to reach girls, young women and mothers to end the patriarchal cycles our society encourages. Peaking to Trans ideology - slow boil for years, some eye opening personal experiences, finally through a female led podcast I really became enraged at how gender ideology was erasing women's sex-based rights.

Woman, mother, lesbian, abolitionist and counselor for people with disabilities. Currently not with any organisation.

The Australian feminist publisher Spinifex has expressedinterest in publishing it. Its inspiration was an exchangebetween me and Julia Long during one of the FeministQuestion Time break-out sessions a while ago. Julia and I werediscussing the importance of documenting all the hard workwomen have been doing, all over the world, for a very longtime, to protect our sex-based rights.Personally, I have noticed that many more women arespeaking out today than were doing ten years ago, and evenbefore that. This is great! All newcomers are welcome andencouraged to be loud. I do my best to highlight their voices ina weekly series I publish on Substack titled FFS Friday, whereFFS stands for Female Free Speech. A lot of people see FFSand they think it stands for For F's Sake, and of course it doesmean that too. I just don't say that out loud.I reached out to several women to write chapters about thework women have been doing in their countries for severaldecades, and many stepped up to do so. Many of us are heretoday.

Susan Hawthorne has been reading about prehistory for nearly 50 years.She even enrolled in a Philosophy PHD entitled ‘Belief Systems in the AncientWorld' in 1979. One year in it became impossible because all the philosopherswanted her to read was postmodernism. She threw in the PhD and began studyingancient languages, Ancient Greek, Sanskrit and some Latin. Instead of her PhD,she wrote a novel, The Falling Woman (1992) which includes some mythicmaterial. Her main work in the mythic area is poetry. In The ButterflyEffect (2005) she unpacks lesbian language and metaphor; in Cow(2011) she follows a cow called Queenie from her invention of the universe tothe present; in Lupa and Lamb (2014) she pulls apart the history ofRome, its wolves and lambs and lost texts found in an ancient museum; in TheSacking of the Muses (2019) she follows myths from India and Greece,including several translations. Poetry allows for experimentation and formaking things up in order to show a different way of seeing the world. She iscurrently working on a book, Ulyssea in which she imagines alesbian-centric Amazon world.
