Call for Submissions -- Ritual, Healing, and World-Making

How do we mark transitions, generate transformational visions, and model alternate ways of being in a world imploding around us? How do we find joy while surrounded by brokenness?  How do we heal when systems are structured against us? What rituals or practices can restore us, even speak to our souls? The next issue of Rejoinder explores the theme of ritual, healing, and world-making. Submissions (including essays, commentary, criticism, fiction, poetry, and artwork) should address this theme from feminist, queer, and social justice-inspired perspectives. We particularly welcome contributions at the intersection of scholarship and activism. For manuscript preparation details, please see our website at: http://irw.rutgers.edu/about-rejoinder. Rejoinder is published by the Institute for Research on Women at Rutgers University in partnership with the Feminist Art Project. Please send completed written work (2,000-2,500 words max -- MS Word), jpegs of artwork, and short bios to irw@sas.rutgers.edu with "Rejoinder Submission" in the subject line by January 15, 2026.
