Family Story wants submissions for blog series on anti-Black racism

Family Story is a think tank “to recognize, validate, and protect the many ways individuals form and re-form families”, and works to address and dismantle family privilege in America. They are running a blog series that examines the ways anti-Black racism affects individuals and families and perpetuates the cycle of anti-Black violence. They want essays that discuss your firsthand account of racism in various ways: towards children, using coded language in personal and professional settings, police violence – see guidelines for details and suggested topics. Submissions should be 600-1,000 words. Pay is $100. Details here (submission call) and here (‘About’ page).
