There is a growing need for content creators from diverse backgrounds to tell their stories. These stories are from the diverse backgrounds of men and women, culturally diverse backgrounds.
WordPress provides a stable and scalable platform that can magnify a voice towards social, cultural and gender issues. The “Me Too” movement is not the only movement that is using Social Media to share its voice and supporting the voiceless, there are other groups that are demanding attending and action.
WordPress is a platform that allows for the acceptance and tolerance of the human story.
