Spring Call for Contributions:

Can you imagine your humyn service practice as a tool of liberation?
 

The Social Work Activist Reader is now accepting contributions for our spring zine! Articles are sought in diverse areas of social work and humyn service that strengthen our vision and skill with social work activism and justice-centered, anti-oppressive practice-art, poetry and dreams also welcome. The Social Work Activist Reader is a welcoming, holistic, consciousness-raising, anti-oppressive, resiliency-celebrating and liberatory-inspiring community forum for exploring persynal and community healing--and our vision for humyn service work--through the lens of justice. All are welcome to participate, please simply have commitment to justice, equality and anti-oppression, a willingness to be a critical thinker (and encourage critical thinking!), a commitment to growing in your work and developing your skills, and have the intention of sharing something that will support our growth as a community of justice weavers.
