Amplify: A Journal of Writing-as-Activism aims to amplify the voices and visions of students, educators, and community members individually and collaboratively in "writing as activism": that is, writing that intends to provoke change towards social justice on the individual, collective, social, and/or political level.
We are currently reviewing submissions for our Fall 2024 issue, Writing-as-Activism in a Time of Destruction. We accept submissions on a rolling basis.
Current Issue: Volume 2, Issue 1 (2023) So to Speak
