KALFOU: A JOURNAL OF COMPARATIVE AND RELATIONAL ETHNIC STUDIES

“Kalfou at the Crossroads”

Submission Deadline for Short Reflections: December 15, 2023

Kalfou is a gathering space for collaboration between academic researchers, community organizations, and insurgent artistry. The crossroads are a site for dreaming together about what a better world might look like and taking action to make that better world a reality.

At these crossroads, Kalfou is specifically seeking SHORT salvos (500–5,000 words) to serve as idea incubators for the challenges we face today.
