The JUSTICE initiative (April 2022—August 2023) strives to fight against all “-isms” & “-phobias,” inequality of all forms, environmental issues, physical & mental health issues, humanitarian crises, and more. We want to hear your rage, your identities that have been wronged by society, your calls-to-action. Though submissions to this folio are not currently open, we appreciate your support.
