The United States may be on the verge of electing its first woman president, but for many of the country's poorest and most marginalized, things aren't getting better. In fact, across the south the fight to keep abortion safe and legal wages on.

The Lady Parts Justice League describes themselves as "a coven of hilarious badass feminists who use humor and pop culture to expose the haters fighting against reproductive justice." The women came together to create a hilarious and timely remix to Beyoncé's "Formation" that spotlights the ways draconian laws and regressive societal views lock women out of exercising their full reproductive rights.

Watch below.

Beyoncé spent the summer performing to sold out crowds on her Formation World tour. Along the way she made sure that her politics would not be overshadowed by her celebrity.

After the killings of Philando Castile and Alton Sterling in July, she stopped her show to pay tribute to victims of police violence and wrote an open letter championing the cause against police brutality.

But more than a year before the Formation video broke the internet, she foreshadowed their move away from the inoffensive and readily palatable.
At the Grammy’s in 2015, she performed the gospel classic “Take My Hand, Precious Lord” with a choir of Black men accompanying her. The men, dressed in all white, performed simple choreography that included a reference to “hands up, don’t shoot,” the rallying cry of angry protestors in the wake of Mike Brown’s killing in Ferguson, Missouri.



To clarify her intentions, Beyoncé released a a mini-documentary on the making of the performance. “I felt like this is an opportunity to show the strength and vulnerability in Black men,” she said. She went on to describe herself as a vessel for the past and continued suffering of Black people including her father who grew up in segregated Alabama. “Now I can sing for his pain,” she reflects. “I can sing for my grandparents pain. I can sing for some of the families that lost their sons.” Despite her best efforts and a shimmering, diaphanous gown, the performance was rather unspectacular, and Beyoncé’s invocation of the gesture got lost in the controversy surrounding her perceived sleight to another performer. But, perhaps, that was a good thing. Beyoncé dipped her toe into the waters of Black Lives Matter with nary a peep.

We've been bopping to Beyoncé's "Formation" since it was released in September, but this Afro-beat remix by DJ Puto takes it to another level.  The new beat paired with the ill choreography by Kara Janelle makes for an irresistible combination. Watch and try to sit still.

Ciera Paul makes learning fun with her innovative approach to teaching geometry. Paul, who teaches at a Charter school in New Orleans, helped teach her kids about circumferences, radii, and angles with a rap to the tune of Beyoncé's "Formation."

You can tell in the clip that every student is engaged. There's even a verse for the Spanish speaking students.

It's great to see an educator so in tune with what her kids respond to. This is exactly what our kids need! Great job, Ciera!

Choreographer Chloe Arnold has made a name for herself with her incredible tap routines to popular songs. We loved her "***Flawless* routine, and she's back with another routine to King Bey's "Formation."

Watch Chloe and the women of the tap group Syncopation work it out to the new anthem.

Beyoncé gave us a first look at her new single, Formation, tonight at the Super Bowl. She released the first single and video off of her forthcoming project last night, just in time for a debut in front of hundreds of millions of people.

Queen Bey treated viewers to some hella blackness with her backup dancers dressed like Black Panthers. Beyoncé, herself, gave us a look reminiscent of Michael Jackson's Super Bowl ensemble.

Immediately after the performance, Beyoncé announced her world concert tour and a fund to benefit Flint children that will include a show at Detroit's Ford Field on May 29.

Yes, Beyonce, You DO Slay
Beyoncé dominates the field. Literally. Is Bey a Bill Gates in the making? #iSlay #sheSlay #weSlay

We're waited two long years for more music from Beyoncé. Now she's back with a new single, "Formation." The clip features Bey getting grimy in New Orleans.

"Formation" is an ode to the singer's roots. You'll hear New Orleans bounce star, Big Freedia, in the background and catch a few shots of 4-year-old Blue Ivy Carter. She's even getting political. Check the shots on top of a sinking police car and "stop killing us" tags spray painted across buildings.
Bey certainly knows the art of great timing. She'll be joining Coldplay during the Super Bowl halftime show tomorrow, and the telecast will surely boost the single's profile.
