This is an open call for articles, inks, digital media, or audio files on the topic of insurgency.
Submission deadline is May 15th for concepts and June 15th for a final product.
Your work will appear in the first issue of Galeropia, a digital magazine produced by Why War? Galeropia's vision is a nonviolent theory and practice more potent than the prevailing reliance on polemics and death. Our method will be a targeted expansion of the movement's self-knowledge, aesthetics, and practice. Each issue of Galeropia will be released without prohibitive copyrights.
We invite all interested individuals to send a proposal, thesis, or sketch to submissions@galeropia.org by May 15, 2004.
"America was never innocent. We popped our cherry on the boat over and looked back with no regrets. You can't ascribe our fall from grace to any single event or set of circumstances. You can't lose what you lacked at conception.
"Mass-market nostalgia gets you hopped up for a past that never existed. Hagiography sanctifies shuck-and-jive politicians and reinvents their expedient gestures as moments of great moral weight. Our continuing narrative line is blurred past truth and hindsight. Only a reckless verisimilitude can set that line straight."
