Where Are We Now?

Since its inception, The GirlTalk Magazine has expanded its middle and high school staff of writers, artists, and contributors around to the world, and has continued to tackle important gender, sexuality, and intersectional feminist issues. The magazine was created in 2017 by former high school students Charlotte Kramon and Eunice Park. Now, under the leadership of Dalton School seniors Zohar Lindemann and Sophie Saxl, what once was a crazy vision to expand GirlTalk’s international network is now reality. With over 45 issues published and hundreds of articles written, The GirlTalk Magazine has become an integral part of many young activists’ lives.
