Deadline: 4 August 2025
The Land, Food, and Freedom Journal is now accepting pitches and submissions for its third issue, centering Black food sovereignty and liberation. We want to hear from growers, stewards, students, teachers, city folks, country kin, disabled, working-class, formerly incarcerated, trans, cis, and gender-nonconforming storytellers and artists who identify within the Black diaspora.
We’re seeking stories and visuals that nourish us. Pieces we can dig into together as we root ourselves in love for our people and the planet as we journey to design systems that nourish us.
We welcome essays, poetry, prose, art, visuals, playlists, multimedia pieces, research, case studies, and more. Honorarium rates range from $350 to $750.
While submissions are accepted on a rolling basis, to be considered for the third issue, please submit by Monday, August 4. We are deeply grateful for your energy and support.
