Shout Out For Content:

Flashflood is looking for collaborators, submissions of writing, artwork, and other media to the website of for print projects, and to find inspiration in our community (aka you!). The ethic behind our projects is to help spread voices of struggles for self-determination and against the oppressive forces of imperialism on all fronts. Though large and cultural, these dynamics of self-determination and oppression define the personal experiences of all of us, in different ways.

What Kind of Submissions Are We Looking For?

We are looking for personal writing, how-to articles, interviews, reviews, essays, artwork, or other submissions that describe their subject in an anti-imperialist context.  We are looking for writing from people who are interested in developing empowering relationships with their communities, with this collective collaboration, and with their own writing/work.

We are also looking for submissions to a Kid’s Page- writing and drawings by and/or for kids, games, event announcements, and more.

Publishing Policy

We will publish things that are in harmony with our founding principles on the website, and will collaborate with others to create print and other physical media. 

We reserve the right to edit any or all submissions for length and clarity, but we promise that all edits will be approved with the author before they are published. If we can’t get a hold of the author, we will either publish the submission without edits or not publish the submission at all. If the author does not approve of requested edits we will either run the submission without edits, or not publish the submission at all.

Founding Principles:

We support the right of communities to self-determination and to build their lives free of imperialist oppression.

We stand against classism, racism, sexism, homophobia, and all other forms of oppression on both individual and cultural/political levels. We stand for learning to create a common struggle, which involves breeching silences created by these and other forms of oppression.

We support honesty and reconciliation in our communities, and are focused on personal liberation as it relates to political liberation, and political liberation as it relates to the personal.

We believe in a diverse movement and the diversity of tactics that it entails. We want a movement that supports political prisoners and practices solidarity with all those who stand against imperialist oppression.
