Call for Submissions: IHRAM Publishes

IHRAM Publishes has moved to a quarterly, themed literary edition!

AND: we are now accepting visual artwork for inclusion in the journal!

We will be focusing on the following concerns:

First Quarter: Resilience Amidst Displacement — PUBLISHED

Second Quarter: Reflections of Feminine Empowerment — PUBLISHED

Third Quarter: Childhood Reflections and Youth Empowerment. — PUBLISHED

Fourth Quarter: Indigenous Voices: Heart, Hope and Land: SUBMIT YOUR WORK TODAY!

Desirous of hearing the voices of original thinkers and land stewards, our fourth quarterof the IHRAM literary magazine is dedicated to indigenous culture and experience in light of Indigenous history in Canada, highlighting Indigenous authors and artists.

Themes: Land stewardship, spirituality, mythology and dreams, aspirations, value of the native voice, challenges faced in this modern world, indigenous experiences which shaped the writer's adulthood, indigenous culture, etc.

Of course, we will continue to look, to listen and to learn about issues of concern for creators from Algeria to Zimbabwe, and everywhere in between! Up to 50% of each issue will be reserved for pieces that expand our understanding of human rights and social justice concerns not covered by the quarterly theme.
