“Feminism is humanity working to repair itself after being split in half.”
Alice Bag Band featuring Kathleen Hanna and Allison Wolfe

Krystal Metcalfe


“Let’s be real, feminism hasn’t always been inclusive especially of women of color and class identity. Alice Walker (author of ‘The Color Purple’) coined the term, Womanist, which our lead singer, Eva, identifies with. Our hope is that feminism continues it’s progression to include ALL female identifying persons, while acknowledging it’s history, so certain myopic parts of it don’t repeat.”
The Black Tones

“Feminism means uplifting each other, and music is the perfect vehicle for that.” White Mystery Band

Ko Newborn



“Feminism is about equality amongst genders, intersectionality, and women helping other women. Being a woman is not a competition!” Clickbait

“Celebrating femininity as a strength found in all beings regardless of gender. Acknowledging that identifying as a woman, a man, or any variation in between, is the blending of feminine and masculine energies and that every combination is unique.” Kairos Creature Club

“The fight for inclusion and equality. Empowerment.”
