Founded in 1990 by Stephanie "Dakara" Wynne, the magazine serves as a platform for creative expression and social advocacy for the Black LGBTQ+ community. The issue includes editorials, personal reflections, and essays addressing themes such as self-concept, the impact of HIV/AIDS on Black women, and historical contributions from Black women during the Harlem Renaissance. Key articles encourage self-awareness, storytelling, and solidarity to combat racism, sexism, and health crises affecting the community.
The magazine also features literary content such as short stories and poetry, discussions on self-esteem and personal growth, and historical retrospectives, such as Amanda Love's tribute to the Harlem Renaissance. In addition, the publication celebrates achievements within the Black lesbian community and offers resources like employment opportunities and personal ads, fostering connection and representation.
