The Bitchin' Kitsch

When we started The B'K eleven years ago, our one goal was to provide an outlet for creators who were generally overlooked. This publication seeks to provide inclusion and equity to creators who have been shut out from traditional publications. We value inclusivity and diverse perspectives and believe the only way to do it right is with #OwnVoices.

READ THE ISSUE

Land Back

I work on the occupied ancestral and traditional lands of the Hinóno'éi-no' (Arapaho), Tsétséhéståhese (Cheyenne), Núu-agha-tʉvʉ-pʉ̱ (Ute), and the Očhéthi Šakówiŋ (Seven Council Fires) peoples. In offering this land acknowledgment, I also acknowledge the state-sanctioned acts of genocide against the original inhabitants of this area and the challenges Indigenous communities face today as a result of colonization. I affirm Indigenous sovereignty, history, knowledge, and experiences. I also pledge to support the Land Back movement and reparations in any way that I can until such time that the land is ceded to its rightful stewards.
