Sure, we have Ebony and Essence. But, honestly, I can't tell you when the last time I flipped through one of their issues. Â It just doesn't speak to me. Â These magazines have a strong reader base and they pioneered the representation of black women in beauty and fashion. I respect what they do, but that's just the tip of the iceberg. Â There's so much more to be said about the modern woman of color which is why I welcome new voices in this important conversation.
Enter Hannah mag. Â An online space that celebrates the multi- faceted nature of the black woman. Â Hannah brings such a beautiful aesthetic to the stories they share. Â Their vision is to bring that striking aesthetic to a print book/magazine published biannually. Â Hannah needed funding in order to become a reality, so they took to Kickstarter to garner the support of the community to help fund the launch. Â On October 5, 2015, the Hannah team announced the successful completion of the campaign after receiving $7,000 above their established goal amount, thanks to the generous donation of eager supporters.
I'm really excited and look forward to the launch. Â I'm not certain about their distribution strategy, but at the very least, I'm sure the first issue will be available on their website for purchase the minute it launches. Â To get a sneak peak of their work, and to learn more about the upcoming launch, be sure to check out Hannahmag.com. Â
Congratulations.
