Introducing Freedom Ways ✊🏾✊🏽✊🏿
Our newest column coming soon, weaving the stories that connect us as writers, as activists, as seekers of social justice. Plus, an invitation!
Introducing Freedom Ways, an interview series where writers explore their personal intersections of writing and liberation.
Inspired by the legacies of writers like June Jordan and Audre Lorde, Freedom Ways aims to honor their profound contributions to both literature and social justice. These pioneering writers used writing as a powerful tool for social transformation, exploring intersectionality before it was widely recognized and challenging systemic oppression through their art and activism.
The series aims to delve deep into the transformative potential of writing, exploring how language can serve as a mechanism for personal and collective liberation. By centering unique perspectives of marginalized writers, Freedom Ways seeks to illuminate strategies for using language as a form of resistance and highlight personal experiences of writing as a deeply transformative practice.
Would you like to be considered or know someone you would love to suggest? We invite writers who are interested in sharing their perspectives to participate in this series, particularly people who are gender expansive and members of the Global Majority.
