THEME:  Lived Feminisms/Womanism/New Mestiza Consciousness/Third
Wave/Cyberfeminism: The Year 2000 and Looking Forward

We invite contributions of critical, personal, and narrative essays,
poetry, interviews, and other forms of (written) expression from women,
men, and transgendered people born between 1960 and 1980 who identify
themselves as feminists/Womanists/New Mestiza/Third Wave/Cyberfeminists
(all, one, or some) and/or who incorporate/modify/exhibit
feminisms/Womanism/New Mestiza Consciousness/Third Wave/Cyberfeminism
(all, one, or some) in their lives/conceptions of self and/or work.

Artists/musicians/photographers and webmasters/designers who wish to
make creative submissions need to contact the editor directly
(jonet-AT-abcs.com).

The goal of this publication is to create a grass-roots effort that
makes the voices, stories, experiences, opinions, and personal
brands/lived forms of "feminisms" available to Women Studies students,
students, instructors, the public/community through a publication to be
called a "jourzine," a form that inhabits the spaces between the
"journal" and the "zine."  The jourzine will also appear in an on-line
format.

Advice, guidance, and submissions are also sought from Women Studies,
Gender Studies, Queer Studies, African American Studies, African
Diaspora Studies, Asian Pacific Studies, Chicana/o Studies,
Latina/Latino Studies, Jewish Studies, India Studies, Native American
Studies, Multicultural Studies, Cultural Studies, American Studies,
European Studies, and Political Science professors, specialists, and
grad students.  We are also interested in advice, guidance, and
submissions from (political/cultural) activists, "everyday people,"
professionals, and non-professionals alike.  Please contact
