"20 years of feminist response to pop culture? We can't quite believe it either. For this special anniversary issue, we asked the authors of 17 of our favorite articles, essays, and interviews to revisit their work and offer a sense of how things have changed—and how they haven't. We also invited four different writers to consider how key spheres of feminist evolution—history, culture, identity, and community—continue to impact the project of media creation and criticism. It's a snapshot of where we are now, and where we're going next."
