Issue 19

Welcome to Issue 19. We offer this issue as a site of gathering, a site of connection. What do we do with all we’ve seen? How do we go on? Our contributors offer their words as challenge to a sinister imperial logic that threatens annihilation. Here, you will find new visions of a survivable collective future, accounting for the horrors of the present and rejecting complacency. This issue’s cover features work by Kiah Celeste and includes contributions from Arah Ko, Chinese Artists and Organizers (CAO Collective), Elise Thi Tran, Estella Burque, Ezza Ahmed, Janine Mogannam, Mohammed Zenia, Ola Alrantisi, River Dandelion, Tina Zafreen Alam, Tomiekia Johnson, iman adam, Lily Philpott, Crystal Odelle, Anthony Gomez III, G’ra Asim, Christina Cooke, Kristal Uribe-Cifuentes, Céline Semaan, Jordany Genao, and Vincent Chong. We hope this issue inspires loving community and continued work towards a just and liberated future.
