Issue Editors: Emily Markides and Vasia Markides

Issue Theme:
The next issue of Mapping Meaning, the Journal, will focus on models and solutions that advance environmental justice with particular interest on racial equity and food security.
Our emphasis is to highlight stories of hope and resilience by those trying to create new models of living that promote a radical reconsideration of the role humanity plays in a more-than-human world. Of particular interest are voices focused on healing and justice where ideas of sustainability, responsibility, and kinship have the potential to shape a new zeitgeist of mutual respect for one another, and reverence for the natural world that sustains us. Whether it be a project that bridges a gap in a community and solves a pressing problem like water or food shortages, pollution, or any other forms of ecological demise, or a successful example of an eco-village or an eco-spiritual community, or an individual artist’s unique perspective that highlights a profound truth about humanity’s role on this planet, we are open to all experiments that showcase the potential healing of broken relations between people and the planet.
