The 85% Niche
ARCHIVE • 2016

Videos and conversations

The archived site used video to foreground women’s voices.

“Women Speak” was the video pathway on the original navigation. The homepage paired it with a “Leading Voices” collection and an overview video of The 85% Niche. Its role was to bring people’s words and perspectives into the foreground alongside the site’s writing.

The editorial idea

The collection named women’s, Latina, Black, Asian, Middle Eastern, Eastern European, Native American and bi-racial voices. These were not treated as a substitute for individual experience; they were an invitation to listen across more than one cultural frame.

Explore without a broken player

The original embedded media is not reliable enough to republish as a working player. The Leading Voices directory preserves the route structure, while the journal preserves the editorial questions that accompanied the videos. No new interview or quotation is attributed to anyone here.
