Magazine Stand :: Consequence – Volume 16.2

Consequence Volume 16.2 is full of beautiful and thought-provoking prose, poetry, and visual art that addresses the consequences of war and geopolitical violence. This issue is focused on voices and perspectives from the BIPOC community through a special featured section.

Here’s what poet, artist, and Guest Editor, Marcus Jackson, had to say about the feature: “The editing team and I agreed this issue’s BIPOC Feature should be borderless and present writers and artists who self-identify as Black, Indigenous, or People of Color from across the globe, not just North America, as diasporas wonderfully outreach regional and continental parameters.

“In this installment of Consequence, the voices range valiantly from stark documentation to elaborate styles and structures, though they all share a sincere belief the written word and the visual image can transcend the horror and grief of geopolitical violence. The profound care and the unblinking courage of the writers and artists in this feature are the enduring reflections and testimonies of communities whose humanity and luminosity refuse to be dimmed by empires’ ruthlessness.“
