Description
Altar Magazine believes that problems are not monolithic, and neither are solutions. It is imperative to have socially progressive women and men fighting on all fronts of the movement whether that is anti-racist work, feminism, anti-heterosexism, economic justice or any other political action. Altar Magazine exists within a community that is fragmented, but not broken. It exists in a time when coalition is crucial and must be implemented. We believe that the personal is political; therefore, all forms of creativity are inherently political. We want to create a space where critical thought and understanding happen simultaneously. This is important because before we can create social change we must be able to re-imagine communities that foster difference. We must be able to take ownership of that which we do not claim in order to effectively critique this oppressive system that we know and perpetuate. Social change is not momentous. It is a process. Our hope is that each individual recognizes his or her place within this system of change.
