Dear John,
After the year we just had, I hope you’re able to take some time to unwind this holiday. If you’re looking for some entertainment, check out our most impactful articles of the year from our print magazine, or our favorite feminist documentaries you can stream at home. Bored of listening to your Spotify Wrapped? Check out our Ms. wrapped: our most-read articles of the year range from the scariest lines in Project 2025 to deep-dive cultural analysis on tradwives, It Ends With Us, and so much more. Looking for fuel for dinner-table debates? We’ve got you covered—browse our substantial coverage of abortion bans, the dangers to women’s rights posed by the incoming Trump administration, and more domestic and global news coverage.
Finally—if you’re reading this letter, you clearly believe in the power and promise of feminist media. As many of us take the time to give to worthy causes at the end of the year, consider making a tax-deductible donation to fuel our reporting, rebelling and truth-telling and keep Ms. strong.
Thank you so much for being a part of the Ms. community this year. We couldn’t do it without you.
Onward, |
Kathy Spillar Executive Editor |

This Week's Must-Reads from Ms. |

Tune in for a new episode of Ms. magazine's podcast, On the Issues with Michele Goodwin on
Apple Podcasts + Spotify.
In this episode, we continue to assess and reckon with the 2024 election results. How did abortion rights prevail, while anti-abortion lawmakers were elected in the very same states? What will a Trump administration mean for women’s rights, federal courts, agencies and throughout government? Are there any safeguards left as a check or restraint on abuse of office? And, what silver linings can we find among the election results? We hope you'll listen, subscribe, rate and review today! |

U.S. democracy is at a dangerous inflection point—from the demise of abortion rights, to a lack of pay equity and parental leave, to skyrocketing maternal mortality, and attacks on trans health. Left unchecked, these crises will lead to wider gaps in political participation and representation. For 50 years, Ms. has been forging feminist journalism—reporting, rebelling and truth-telling from the front-lines, championing the Equal Rights Amendment, and centering the stories of those most impacted. With all that’s at stake for equality, we are redoubling our commitment for the next 50 years. In turn, we need your help, Support Ms. today with a donation—any amount that is meaningful to you. We are grateful for your loyalty and ferocity.
