We invite you to write in a genre that fits your interest, aesthetic or discipline. It can be your essay or response written for a course. And we are equally excited to publish your photographic narratives, poems, short stories, interpretation of the magazine’s theme in artwork, interview of a scholar in the field, and more. If you want us to link your EDI-related podcast to this digital space, please connect with us.
We would love to hear from you!
