Hello! My name is MSI, and I am the founder of Today’s Truths. My parents immigrated from Pakistan years before I was born, and I’m very grateful for the education that I was able to receive in the United States. My school offered a women’s studies course, which I took in my junior year of high school. This course educated me on the history of feminism in America and the many feminists in American history, Sojourner Truth being one of them. I noticed that Truth advocated for women of color back then, and the problems she spoke about are prevalent in my home country today.

Women in Pakistan do not have the ability to become financially independent with ease and often lack higher education. More often than not, they can not work, and must marry quickly in hopes of having a sustainable life. Truth spoke about this issue that was affecting women in the 1920s, but today in the 2020s this is a still widespread problem. This is when I decided to find Today’s Truths and support women in my culture by establishing them as businesswomen. Together, I hope to inspire and assist as many women as possible with their trade.
