Call for contributions to CAL@10

Celebrating 10 years of resistance, resilience, power and revolution 2003-2013

The Coalition of African Lesbians [CAL] invites all our members, partners and friends to submit contributions for a publication celebrating ten years of collective feminist resistance, resilience, revolution and power as lesbian and bisexual women and trans-diverse people across Africa through our association with CAL at various times and in different spaces of our movement.

We welcome critical and reflective articles; anecdotes, memories and photographs of particular moments of our herstory; poetry, stories, letters, speeches, conversations, diary and journal entries, media reports; mobile text messages (cellphone, facebook, twitter, blogs etc); and creative visioning of the continent we want to live in.

Let’s surface our pain and pleasure, our fear and courage, and document our resilience and resistance, our challenges and victories.

The deadline for submissions is Friday the 30th of November 2013. Kindly send your submissions to [email][email protected] . We will confirm receipt of all submissions, and correspond further with the authors of submissions selected for publication. Contact Fikile Vilakazi ([email protected]) or Liz Frank ([email protected]) for any queries related to this call.
