## Description

Autostraddle is a pioneering brand that has become the internet's most popular and oldest independently-owned website for lesbian culture. Founded in 2009 by Riese Bernard and Alexandra Vega, Autostraddle is a digital publication and real-life community created by and for LGBTQIA+ individuals and their friends. With a dedicated team of progressive feminist queer and trans individuals, Autostraddle strives to provide a space where lesbians and queer people can embrace their entire selves and be known for their multi-dimensional identities. This inclusive platform celebrates the diversity of trans, nonbinary, and queer women. Autostraddle boasts over 2.5 million unique views per month, making it a prominent voice in the LGBTQIA+ community. However, in order to sustain their important work, they rely on the financial support of their readers. With a committed staff and contributors spread across the United States, Autostraddle offers a range of revenue streams including their A+ Membership Program, merchandise sales, advertising, and affiliate commissions. Autostraddle is dedicated to intersectional feminism and aims to champion Black and Brown queerness as the center and future of lesbian and queer culture. They actively uplift the freedom and joy of queer, lesbian, and bisexual women, as well as all genders of trans and nonbinary people of color and individuals living with disabilities. With a commitment to transparency, integrity, professionalism, and effective communication, Autostraddle strives to create an inclusive and empowering environment for its team members and readers alike. By providing a platform that centers marginalized voices within the LGBTQIA+ community, Autostraddle continues to be a vital resource and a beacon of visibility and representation.
