Echoing Ida Collection

The Black women and nonbinary members of the writing collective Echoing Ida harness the power of media for social justice. With over five hundred articles published, their work amplifies the struggles and successes of contemporary freedom movements in America. Aiming to move the needle on the most pressing issues of our time, Echoing Ida nurtures a community of Black writers who--like their foremother Ida B. Wells-Barnett--believe the "way to right wrongs is to turn the light of truth upon them."

In this anthology, the best of Echoing Ida's writing is collected for the first time; topics include state violence, reproductive justice, media and culture, trans visibility, and more. Featuring a foreword by Michelle Duster, activist and great-granddaughter of Ida B. Wells-Barnett, the essays imagine a gender-expansive and liberated future.
