Dissolving the Wall: Indigenous Resistance on the Border
RED INK: International Journal of Indigenous Literature, Art, & Humanities is calling for manuscripts of poetry, fiction, personal narrative, plays, nonfiction, or features dealing with the southwestern border and Indigenous peoples’ resistance and survivance.
For this issue we are especially interested in international voices from where walls have failed before, for example, Eastern Bloc Berlin Wall, Great Wall of China, peace walls of Northern Ireland, Hadrian’s wall, and the wall before Hadrian's wall (do you know which one that was?).
Submissions might deal with questions like:
How are people resisting/expressing resistance to the wall?
How do political borders and physical walls disrupt lives and relationships (human and non-human) in the Indigenous lands they cross?
How is this wall illegitimate and what will it fail to accomplish regardless of the intent?
What collateral damage will attempt to create this wall inflict?
What does the idea of the wall symbolize and to whom?
How does the idea of this wall contradict thousands of years of Indigenous movement of this area?
Please submit manuscripts here: https://redink.submittable.com/submit
Submission deadline: March 1, 2020
