The editors of Minerva Rising have brought together the voices of women writers in this issue to mark the centennial of the 19th Amendment to the USA Constitution. While we celebrate the women that have gone on before us, it is also essential to remember the reality that women are still fighting 100 years later for equality. While we want to honor the centennial, we recognize that it has a complicated legacy of who benefited and those whom it left out. This collection is to honor the journey of 100 years that brought us here and the path we need to forge ahead. We will not be silenced.
