mojo20

mojo20 marks the return of our online journal since the Covid-19 pandemic. Our 4 year haitus gave us pause to think about the work we do and how we can continue to provide a space for diverse narratives to thrive. This 20th installment signifies rebirth. Rebirth that allows for new ways of being to emerge. We offer this collection as a gift which we hope will inspire our readers to keep telling their stories.

There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside of you

Dr. Maya Angelou, I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings
