Consider submitting your work to @lampblack_lit for our next issue! “We are committed to the advancement of Black literature through direct aid, programs for writers and readers of Black literature, and publishing a magazine dedicated to voices from the Black diaspora.”
Until 4/1, Lampblack Magazine is accepting submissions of previously unpublished poetry, prose and criticism. What creates the duty of community and who are its participants? What is its role? We seek to interrogate these questions in our upcoming issue: Community.
The founding member of the Compton chapter of the Black Panther Party opened the first Black gay bar in San Francisco named Eagle Creek in 1990. He provided a safe space for Black queer folks, host fundraisers for Black orgs, and more. His name was Rodney Barnett.
