Submissions to Libertroph Magazine are currently closed.
That said, we would love to hear from folks who have a future submission in mind. Topics we’re especially interested in for upcoming issues include:
Wealth, land, and redistribution
Reporting-style pieces on current organizing efforts led by white anti-racist organizers
Community-level organizing that seeks to reduce the power of the far Right and disorganize white supremacist groups and actions
Efforts to confront and transform white culture
Speculative fiction pieces that expand our imaginations on what futures beyond the violence of white dominant culture might look and feel like
If you have something in mind that may be a good fit for Libertroph, please contact us.

Submissions are welcome from anybody with a story to tell about white anti-racist organizing and culture-building, regardless of your race. We encourage submissions from people of all generations, geographies, genders, and abilities.
We invite submissions of all genres and mediums, including: visual art, comics, somatic practices, photography, nonfiction, fiction, interviews and profiles, prose and poetry, facilitation or practice resources and guides, video and audio, music, recipes, and more. If you aren’t sure about a submission, contact us or submit anyway
We welcome up to 3 submissions per contributor. The magazine will have both digital and print editions. Your submission may be included in one or both.
While there is no word limit to submissions, we encourage written pieces under 2,500 words. (And, we know some pieces genuinely need more. If that’s your piece, please don’t feel bound by this guideline.)
We do not consider AI-generated submissions. Submissions must be human-made at all stages.

Please plan to submit a 150-300 word artist statement alongside your pieces to demonstrate the connection to the theme of white anti-racist organizing. If selected for online publication, your art will be paired with image descriptions for accessibility purposes.

Libertroph is a volunteer-run effort, and at this time, contributors should not expect monetary compensation. The print edition is funded by donations and values-aligned ads. You can donate and review our financial transparency information here. -
Libertroph exclusively publishes artist and creator-owned media, and contributors retain the rights to their work.
We welcome works that have been posted online already via your social media, website or blog. You can also submit a piece to us that’s been published elsewhere, as long as you have permission from the publication that previously released your work.
