Give justice to the weak and the fatherless; maintain the right of the afflicted and the destitute. Rescue the weak and the needy; deliver them from the hand of the wicked.” -Psalm 82: 3-4
Make art about taking action to protect and defend the weak and oppressed.
J JOURNAL: NEW WRITING on Justice seeks submissions for its 19th issue.
J Journal seeks new writing – fiction, creative nonfiction (1st person narrative, personal essay, memoir) and poetry – that examines questions of justice. Although we find that our most powerful pieces relate tangentially to the justice theme, we also welcome work that speaks directly of crime, criminal justice, law and law enforcement. As a literary project, however, J Journal is less likely to publish straightforward genre fiction. We encourage writers to approach the justice issue from any angle.
Email up to three poems or up to 6000 words of fiction/nonfiction to: submissionsjjournal@gmail.com
Or send your submission to:
