Through this journal, we are inviting you into a new way of thinking and doing, one which begins with questioning everything we take for granted.
In particular, how we contribute – or think we contribute – to a better world. We will not have all the answers, but we want to ask better questions.
“This is not a time for the weak. This is a time for people who have a deep moral and spiritual vision of the future of humankind.” — Payam Akhavan
“Politics is the art of looking for trouble, finding it everywhere, diagnosing it incorrectly and applying the wrong remedies.” — Groucho Marx
“I rebel, therefore we exist.” — Albert Camus
“I draw from the absurd three consequences, which are my revolt, my freedom, and my passion.” — Albert Camus
“"Poetry is about freedom of articulation and affirming the truth of our experiences. I think of my writing as joining a long line of women’s resistance poetry that exposes the social and political conditions of women’s existences.” — Sarah Lubala
“You belong anywhere you can flee to and return from in one piece” ― K. Eltinaé
“The poets, by which I mean all artists, are finally the only people who know the truth about us. Soldiers don’t. Statesmen don’t. Priests don’t. Union leaders don’t. Only the poets.” — James Baldwin
