OUR STORY.
Isa Magazine is an independent online publication dedicated to amplifying the marginalized voices of Black, Indigenous, People of Colour (BIPOC) youth and young women.
Founded in June 2020 by Filipina-Canadian, Ann Villegas, Isa aims to create a safe and inclusive space for all young individuals to fully and freely express their creativity. Isa will always be an open community for all creative minds to thrive. You can read Ann’s Letter From Editor here.
Isa translates to One in Tagalog emphasizing our mission in uniting and empowering BIPOC youth to have their voices heard with a media platform. Whether it be in a social or political climate, our stories are often untold and underrepresented in a system designed to fail us. However, through shared voices and art, we can carve out a place for ourselves, and come out stronger together.
We are open to collaborations! To get in contact with us, please email info@isamagazine.com.
