Weasel Press is actively looking for submissions to a new-ish literary journal. We’re taking Poetry, Artwork and Photography focusing towards social justice topics. Deadline 2-6-15!



The purpose of the project is to awaken, enlighten and maybe even provide a bit of shelter to those who need it. Poetry has some immense power in the world, either through healing its readers or inspiring them to become involved. We’re looking for Poetry, Photography, Artwork, Prose Poetry, etc with passion. We need to be able to feel and experience your work. There is a wealth of social justice and other topics that we are looking at to put this anthology together.
