THE IDENTITY ISSUE

FALL/WINTER 2019

The theme for our debut issue is Identity.

Who are you? What and/or who shaped you to be who you are? Have you ever lost your sense of self? This issue seeks to be an exploration of culture, race, expectations, family, and names; anything and everything that has defined your own identity.
