Muchacha Fanzine Issue #11 “POC Solidarity” CALL OUT FOR SUBMISSIONS!

For it’s newest zine edition, Muchacha invites people of color of varying identities to submit stories, visual art, photography, comics, poetry, and essays related to building unity among people of color.

———–

As colonized peoples, it is important that we lift each other up. Though people of color (POC) have made progress in uniting on common fronts, this does not exempt us from the oppressive behaviors that are still happening in our communities. People of color being complicit in violence against black people, non-muslim POC acting islamaphobic towards muslim POC, & POC being abusive against transgender and cisgender women of color are only a few examples. POC marginalizing other POC while being simultaneously marginalized is very real & happening right now throughout the entire world.

Rather than scrambling for bits of power and access to white supremacy, Muchacha Fanzine’s “POC Solidarity” asks to consider any of the following questions: “How can different groups of POC build trust among one another? In what ways can we heal ourselves & help heal one another? How can we acknowledge our different histories while collectively moving forward? How can we decolonize internalized racism within ourselves & each other? What can we do to work together in new ways? How can we use our privilege in productive ways? How can solidarity among people of color help dismantle oppressive systems (legal, educational, health care, media, economic, government, community, political, religious, justice systems)?”

*Remember this is very open-ended. This issue of Muchacha does not expect definitive answers. Instead, the point is to feature diverse perspectives in order to have a much-needed conversation. There are no strict guidelines on POC-related topics as long as your work avoids transphobic, classist, ableist, misogynist, & otherwise oppressive language. If you are a person of color who has thoughts on this issue, Muchacha encourages you to submit. All writing & art forms are welcomed and valued. (even rants & doodles!)

Send submissions to [email protected] by December 1st, 2015. Please limit written submissions to 2500 words & attach .jpg art images. Including a short bio/contact info is encouraged but optional. All of the contributors will receive free copies including domestic/international shipping. POC UNITE!
