Call for Submissions: as Others literary magazine

Call for submissions: as Others literary magazine 

We are interested in exploring the "Otherness" many of us feel in regards to a part of our identity outside the dominant culture. The name of our blog is based on Simone De Beauvoir’s description of Otherness in The Second Sex.
“The category of Other is as original as consciousness itself. The duality between Self and Other can be found in the most primitive societies, in the most ancient mythologies; the division did not always fall into the category of the division of the sexes ..No group ever defines itself as One without immediately setting up the Other opposite itself.” - Simone de Beauvoir, The Second Sex

1) Your experience as an Other, or
2) A well formulated critique of an organization/media's portrayal or treatment of an Other
