Submission

Winter 2015 Themed Issue: In this issue of Mizna, we will examine where different forms of oppression meet. Originally the term “intersectionality” was coined by law professor K. Crenshaw to address the ways in which black women have faced a particular kind of oppression due to the intersection of race and gender.

We are asking you to share with us your stories, essays, and poems that reflect your own experiences or analysis of intersectionality of race, gender, class, religion, ethnicity, etc.
