Majesty Digital: A media organization for womxn of color

In April 2017, I co-founded 'Majesty', an organization designed to encourage womxn of color to share stories about their lived experiences. We launched videos on Facebook and released a digital magazine. (see image below)

The question at the center of our exploration was: Could we create a virtual space that revealed the universality of our stories as women of color through specific testimonials?

Our purpose became: We want to celebrate our differences and find commonality in them. Being a womxn of color is not a monolith. We are individuals. We are complex. Grouping us together is hence a way to portray that we are too diverse to be generalized.
