Their Light Remains

Their Light Remains is an annual remembrance series to honor the South Asian lives lost to GBV, first held in 2022. Through this series we invite our community into a period of healing, grieving, and and reflection by sharing the names, stories, &. portraits of the ones we’ve lost.

Journaling Zine

This zine an invitation and offering to explore and reflect on your grief—how it manifests, evolves, and moves you. Our intentions are to create a space for healing and to reaffirm a collective commitment to uprooting the culture and systems that lead to violence.

Send us your submission!

We will be re-publishing the zine with all of your reflections in April 2024, and we would love for yours to be a part of it.

Share your musings or explorations on grief or the lives lost to gender-based violence.

  • Submissions can include:

  • Writing (350 words) or poetry

  • Photography, Illustrations, Artwork

  • Video (as long as you have a link)

  • Breathing or somatic exercises

  • Recipes and rituals

Submission Deadline: March 31st, 2024
