CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS:  LINEAGE OF MIRRORS

Winter Tangerine

INFO: Lineage of Mirrors seeks to profile poets of color and their influences. Twice a month, they will publish a suite of poems from a writer of color, alongside a statement from the writer on a poem by a poet of color that has influenced their craft. They strive to create a space for poets of color to discuss, analyze, and celebrate the work that changed everything for them. They’re invested in documenting the lines of influence that run through poetry from writers of color. This column will serve as an online archive of contemporary poetry that centers discussions of lineage, craft and the necessary resilience of POC poetic traditions.

AWARD: There is an honorarium for each profiled poet.

DEADLINE: Submissions will be open throughout the year.
