Jessica Horn is the July 2025 Spotlight feature on the Leading Ladies Africa platform. She shares insights on leadership, her upbringing and how it cultivated her sense of justice and African women’s agency, and thoughts on the future of African feminist activism. “ I was lucky to have entered an African feminist movement that was multigenerational and panAfrican in character, seeking to craft feminist freedoms that were global in scope. I have had the privilege to be in community with independence era activists as well as African feminists from the Vienna, Cairo and Beijing generation that had shaped international policy and law on women’s rights in the 1990s. They were clear on the fact that if you want to win you have to address structural power. You have to get in there and engage the state, rework mainstream power, and demand presence, voice, recognition, protection and resources. They also taught me that you have to be brave. They faced down colonial violence, dictatorships, military rule, civil war, apartheid, and the silencing force of social stigma. They built movements and they also built organisations. And they wrote, they theorised and produced literature.” Read the full interview here. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f74caf17e186b15c0517347/a0f3dc0b-724a-4df1-957c-422cea47056d/African+Feminist+Praxisfinalcover+SM.jpeg Latest - Debut book!
