“So much of the work of oppression is policing the imagination"”
— Saidiya Hartman
Peaks of Colour’s Nature Journal
Welcome to the Peaks of Colour’s Nature Writing Journal.
A space for writers, thinkers, doers, musers, dreamers, storytellers and creators to explore our relationship with nature. We believe writing is an act of resistance, and this is a platform for our radical imagining.
Our Autumn/Winter pitch call out will take place in September 2024 - Watch this space!
