Check out the new trans* lit journal THEM!
“THEM IS A BODY.
THEM is a body of writers, of writing that does not conform.
Whether we lie outside, between, reject, or move freely between gender identities, our bodies are a site of disruption, confusion, and instability for those around us.
THEM is disassembly.
Like gender, writing has failed us. And yet we contain it. Taking these objects up into our hands, our mouths—which are somehow and mysteriously ours—we fashion ourselves in THEM.
We incorporate.
This is a writing unashamed to speak “I”, to address “you”, to hold an “us.” We have been constructed as many, so we no longer look for a ground to call home; we come from below and accept. We admit we were never singular.
We are THEM.”
