  • "The 19th aims to elevate the voices of women who are underrepresented in and underserved by American media: women of color, women living off the coasts and women of limited means," Ramshaw said.
  • Initial beats will include presidential politics, women and Congress, the women's electorate, women's health, women and the economy, and women and the states.
  • As a nonprofit, nonpartisan newsroom, all of The 19th's content will be free to consume and will not be behind a paywall.
  • It took another four decades, well into the civil rights movement, for women of color to attain that same right," Ramshaw said.
