Introducing Libertroph

We're thrilled to have you with us as we seek art and stories to nurture our visions of being nourished by liberation! 

We wanted to take a moment to introduce ourselves.

Libertroph was founded by Alyssa and Julienne, both of whom are white, queer anti-racist organizers. Alyssa (she/they) is also a coach and facilitator and coach committed to discovering and practicing new ways of being that help us break free of dominant systems. Julienne (she/they) is an artist and storyteller with a desire to expand our capacity for imagining new futures and building networks of care and solidarity. 

Libertroph Magazine was born from our shared desire to build a creative archive of white anti-racist practices and an index of possibilities for the future. Despite what mainstream media wants us to believe, we know there are, have been, and will be white people defying white dominant culture by parenting their children in anti-racist ways, uncovering the memories and traditions of their ancestral cultures, paying reparations and indigenous land taxes, and so much more. We hope Libertroph can serve as an invitation for more white people to take up the life-giving work of anti-racist organizing by illuminating examples and imaginations of all it can look like. 

There is one month left to submit your work to Libertroph! Whether it's visual art, fiction, creative nonfiction, recipes, resources, or any genre-defying piece, we can't wait to read what you have to share.

Submission deadline: October 1, 2024
Submission guidelines can be found here. 

If you have any questions or need further information, feel free to reach out to us at libertroph@gmail.com. 

Thank you again for being a part of this journey with us. We can't wait to see what you create!

Warmly,
Julienne & Alyssa
Co-Founders, Libertroph Magazine
