About Me

Princess O’Nika Auguste is a Caribbean writer, feminist, body protester, biblical scholar, and historian from Saint Lucia. Her work is driven by a passion for unearthing silenced histories and examining the crossroads of gender, mythology, the Bible, violence, and the sacred. Through a unique lens that weaves theology, history, and pop culture, she challenges dominant perspectives and reclaims marginalised narratives.

Auguste’s writing has been featured in a diverse range of publications, including PopCulture and Theology, Equality Fund, Intersect Antigua, and Christian Feminism Today. Her micro-essay, “Reclaiming the Sacred: The Bible, Critical Theory, and Caribbean Identity”, was published in The Bible and Critical Theory Journal. She also contributed an exploration of the goddess Tethys for The Periodic Table of Greek Mythology and penned a chapter on the feminist legacies within the worlds of Sam Raimi and Robert Tapert for the anthology Televisual Shared Universes. In all her work, Auguste seeks to amplify the overlooked and inspire new ways of seeing.
