As James Baldwin reminds us, \u201cthe role of the artist\u2026is to illuminate that darkness [and] to make the world a more human dwelling place.\u201d In this light, we invite submissions of poetry and prose that explore the possibilities of resistance and collective democratic worldbuilding, envisioning worlds in which achieving justice is a reality.<\/p>\n<p>We are particularly interested in submissions that engage with the various centers of gravity concerning voting, reproductive rights, and trans rights, making black lives matter, healthcare, inequality, and their intersections with the environment and autonomy. In particular, we ask how acts of resistance might rebuild our human and nonhuman dwelling places while creating resilient systems of authentic community.<\/p>\n<h3>Submission Guidelines<\/h3>\n<p>About Place Journal is published twice a year, in spring and fall.
