Digital Dialogues: Navigating Online Spaces - Call for Papers and Artwork
Intersectional Apocalypse is a student-made, student-run, and student-edited online journal which makes centring marginalised voices and experiences a priority.
As an anti-oppressive, anti-colonial and decolonial, non-hierarchical, and diversity focused journal, we bring the attention of our first issue to navigating online spaces, where we will explore the many complexities of marginalised experiences online and relating to online spaces. Covering all the highs, lows, and in-betweens of navigating online spaces, we welcome diverse and dissonant perspectives. This is where you come in: be they positive or negative, we want to hear about your experiences! Tell us how aspects of your identity have influenced the way you interact online!
What we’re looking for:
-
Submissions from marginalised people: emphasis on black and Indigenous people of colour (BIPOC), disabled, and LGBTQ2IA+ perspectives.
-
All media accepted and encouraged: academic articles (max. 3000 words), personal/narrative texts (max. 3000 words), videos (max. 20 mins), images, music, podcasts (max. 1 hour), poems, art, interviews, etc. If you have creations that exceed our maximums, please contact us.
