REMINDER: Writers Resist Call for Submissions
Current Call for Submissions
We’ll be publishing a special Writers Resist issue on 19 June 2021 to acknowledge Juneteenth and the first 150 days of the Biden-Harris administration.
We all see things—politics, justice, history, the future, even flowers—differently. What are you seeing these days?
Send us your words, in poetry or prose, and your images, but read our submission guidelines first.
Someone posted an article from an issue of Scientific Magazine that deaths of young black and brown men had declined since Trayvon and Micheal Brown. This was a few weeks ago. Since then, we have seen on tv and the news, the police killings of: Daunte Wright of Minneapolis, Alex Toledo of Chicago, a sixteen year old girl wielding a knife in Ohio, Andrew Brown of North Carolina who had both hands on his own steering wheel, tried to get away and was then shot in the back of his head five times. So does one of the most honored magazines in the country, Scientific American, really know what they are talking about, or are they engaged in supporting articles that obfuscate ( MURKIFY ) the truth. Say it aint so Joe.
