This is a call for narratives, poetry and critical essays for an anthology about Black identified females who want to share their experiences of the first time they were called a n*gger or had heard the word for the first time even though it may not have been directed toward them. Anyone is welcome to participate, regardless of age, educational background and nationality.

Please send to the mailing address listed or (preferably) send via email as a Word or Appleworks attachment. Please also attach short bio, contact info. Submissions should be double spaces, 1" margins and preferably no more than 15 pages long. This anthology will hopefully be published at the end of 2006 as part of a Harvard University Research Project.
