pluck! The Journal of Affrilachian Arts & Culture is now accepting submissions for its 11th issue themed, "Legacy & Tradition." We invite poetry and prose (both scholarly and creative) that illustrates the concepts of legacy and tradition. This could include storytelling, familial traditions, recipes, music, folklore and folk art, for example. We also invite digital collage and photography which interprets our theme visually. All submissions will be considered for both print and web editions of the issue.
