About Us
Total Woman Victory is a quarterly radical feminist newsletter working to amplify the voices of women across the globe. We have a responsibility as students of feminist theory to reach the masses of women in desperate need of radical politics. We are dedicated to making a space where women can speak unapologetically about the issues that affect us. The collection and codification of the stories of survival of Third World women takes precedence to uphold our anti-imperialist line of struggle.
Total Woman Victory is a collection of art and writing submitted by feminists from all over the world. This publication is made possible because women have generously given their time, creativity, and ideas for free. Each issue is a testament to the power of community-driven content and the contributions of women who believe in sharing their voices. We invite others to participate as well, as submissions for art and writing will be open for every issue. To stay updated, announcements for when submissions are open will be made on our Twitter, and submission forms will be posted here on our website.
Our Mission
We dare to dispense with the palatability and niceness of liberal feminism.
We challenge the silence of female subordination.
We are radical in our demands, and attack the roots of women’s subjugation to male dominance.
No more theatrics in times of anti-woman political repression.
We must build our case for sexual revolution.
Our Vision
We envision a world in which the epistemology of social and material reality encompasses the perspectives and knowledge of half a totality that has been historically and culturally silenced into subordination. We will ensure that our newsletter is not infiltrated by peripheral discourse that diverts the feminist political project. We want to reach the masses of women in an accessible and creative manner that challenges the dominant male methodology of propagandizing and empowering oppressed classes. We aim to raise the consciousness of the average woman to empower the survival and self-determination of ALL women.
Meet the Team
Sathi Patel coordinates the proofreading process as an editor for TWV. Based in Worcester, MA, she organizes with Project Priceless, a collective of women surviving prostitution through homelessness and addiction. Already a student of revolutionary Marxism, she found that it failed to answer the sex-class contradictions she witnessed in the street economy—until discovering Andrea Dworkin’s Intercourse, which sharpened her radical politics by placing women’s oppression at the foundation of her analysis. See the impact of the development of her incisive and dissident feminist politic through her various essays published in TWV: The Sex Contradiction, On Prostitution, and more! You’ll find Sathi at her happiest cuddled up with her beloved kids 🐾
Winnie Lark lives in the Midwest USA and is the art director and one of several editors for TWV. After growing disillusioned with queer theory and liberal feminism, she discovered radical feminism in 2023 and founded the Radical Feminist Book Club on Twitter the following year. Winnie writes solo pieces for TWV (A Call to Return to Consciousness Raising,) as well as collaborative pieces with her wife, Judith (Will Boys Be Boys? The Scientific and Radical Feminist Case Against Biological Determinism.) Winnie always looks forward to the weekends when she and Judith can work on TWV in coffee shops around their town.
Maya Reddy is one of the editors for TWV. While she was born in India, she has lived in North Carolina for the majority of her life. She found radical feminism through real life friends and finally found a robust alternative to the inconsistent and impractical liberal feminism she had known. Maya is the creator of the Feminist Funnies comic series that is in every issue of TWV, aiming to add lightheartedness and relatability to the newsletter with radical feminism as a basis for the topics that each comic covers. While Maya has delved into plenty of artistic pursuits like Bharatanatyam and flute, drawing is unfortunately not one of them, and she hopes to improve through drawing these comics.
Judith Lark (Midwest USA) is an editor and frequent contributor to TWV. She comes from a background of geopolitical economy à la Radhika Desai and discovered radical feminism through her wife, Winnie Lark. Judith is interested in drawing upon a range of influences—from Marxism to active inference to classical economics—to develop her understanding of how systemic oppression of women functions and what its strongest determinants are. She has written solo pieces for TWV, such as Politicizing Sex, as well as collaborative pieces with Winnie (Debunked: A Reckoning with Zionist Charges in Contemporary Feminist Discourse).
