How we make a difference
Women, people of color and other marginalized people are still largely underrepresented in the music business.
While shesaid.so started with a gender-focused mission, over the past 8 years we have learned that we must look at equity in music from a truly holistic perspective.
One that takes into account intersectionality across factors such as gender, race, age, accessibility, economic background, sexual identity, and cultural & social frameworks.
Why is this important?
Not only does underrepresentation create a culture that is harmful to others and society as a whole, but it also leads to a lack of diversity of creativity within the music industry.
This can limit innovation and creativity and, as a result, economic, social and cultural development.
Given the importance of music in the world, this can ultimately have a negative impact on the industry as a whole, and on society more broadly.
Our mission is to make the music industry an equitable ecosystem for all, and ultimately help make the world a better place for humanity leveraging the power of music.
Each member has been carefully curated to ensure our community brings together globally-minded music industry professionals with outstanding work ethics and values that are aligned with ours.
