 Ms. was a groundbreaker - the first U.S. magazine to explain and advocate the ERA. It was the first to rate presidential candidates on women's issues. And, Ms. was the first to put domestic violence and sexual harassment on the cover of a women's magazine -- and at the forefront of American consciousness. Today, Ms. continues to tear down barriers. The publication boasts the most extensive coverage of international women's issues available in the United States, and as evidenced by its countless awards, upholds the highest standards of investigative reporting and feminist political analysis in all of journalism, regardless of gender. The 21st Century Ms. was re-launched with the magazine's April/May 1999 issue and is still going strong. Throughout March, the magazine will maintain a special presence in honor of Women's History Month. Participating in a variety of women's educational programs and panel discussions, Ms. staffers strive to build continued awareness for women's issues - and as a by-product, brand awareness for Ms. Magazine. In addition, the February/March 2000 issue of Ms. continues its exploration of women's history in the making. In this issue, editor-in chief Marcia Gillespie and staff debunk the double standard for motherhood by examining how the media lauds celebrity moms for many of the same behaviors that are vilified when done by moms living in poverty, especially those on welfare. This scathingly funny piece bursts the bubble of hypocrisy that has long surrounded the discussion of motherhood in America. Next Ms. writers take on the hip hop scene, as two young feminists talk about the music they love and hate, and the culture that spawned it. Also in this issue: A powerful story of one woman's desperate underground journey to escape her abusive mate. Natalie Angier the author of Woman: An Intimate Geography talks about her groundbreaking book and the firestorm this bestseller stirred in the scientific community. Finally, this issue of Ms. debuts the first of what will become regular columns by Gloria Steinem and former Boston Globe columnist, Patricia Smith. The February/March issue goes on sale Jan. 25. Ms. Magazine is a bi-monthly publication. It carries a cover price of $5.95 in the United States and $6.95 in Canada. |

is a women's history lesson in itself. Having overcome virtually
every political, social, and financial obstacle imaginable over
the course of its 28 year history, the Ms. Magazine that made
waves on the newsstand was restored with new ownership (Liberty
