We hold a profound belief that feminism transcends mere equality; it is a powerful force for empowerment. 

Our mission is to create a supportive space that empowers individuals to connect with their authentic selves, find their voices, and collectively work towards dismantling repressive systems. We are dedicated to constructing a more equitable society that celebrates diversity and inclusion through two key pathways: hosting events and workshops that nurture self-worth, and providing a publishing platform for individuals to express their unique voices confidently.

“redrosethorns was one of my first literary magazine publications, and I see it as a deeply supportive and liberatory space, especially for poetry that deals with issues of feminism and gender liberation. Their promotion of my work really helped me grow my audience—a form of support that is invaluable as an independent trans writer—and their editorial staff was very communicative and helpful about the publishing process. Additionally, it was great to collaborate with a mag that had a presence on Substack, as the email format makes it much easier to stay engaged. Overall, this was an excellent collaboration, and I would encourage any gender-marginalized author to submit their work."
