All My Relations Issues

All My Relations Volume 5 is an art and lit, online and printed magazine, exploring the theme of overcoming, open to BIPOC, gender variant, and disabled creatives only.

“While the pieces contained within this anthology are specific to each creator’s unique experience, the drive and push to persist against the odds is a shared experience. Whether the obstacles were internal or external, we can all relate to the journey, and the frustration felt when these barriers come from otherization. And we can all share in the success and pride that comes with each story of overcoming.”

All My Relations Volume 4 is an art and lit, online and printed magazine, exploring the themes of disability and accessibility, open to disabled creatives only.

“As someone who spent most of my life chronically ill, it was horrifying to watch people I considered near and dear take a laissez-faire approach [during the coronavirus pandemic] to community wellness and position their frankly dangerous approach as a matter of opinion or their “right.” It was hard seeing people I regarded highly consider our relations disposable…None of us are ever disposable…We are all interconnected, and together we create a beautiful tapestry that is as rich, diverse, and beautiful as this collection.”

All My Relations Volume 2 is an art and lit, online and printed magazine, exploring the themes of colonization and decolonization, open to BIPOC creatives only.

“I wanted to provide space to my fellow Black, Indigenous, and/or people of color to share their authentic stories. To reflect on their ancestors, to explore the complete variety of feelings that come from decolonizing their history, to explain the rituals that help them cope with the effects of colonization, to muse on alternative realities where colonization never occurred, and/or to reflect on a colonization-free future. To share, to say in their own words or visuals what they wanted to say, and to, hopefully heal.”

All My Relations Volume 1 is an art and lit, online and printed magazine, exploring the theme of familial (blood, adopted, affirming, community, or other “family”) loss or ancestry, prioritizing traditionally marginalized creators, but open to all.

“Each of our journeys through loss is individual, but we don’t need to experience that journey alone. I hope that as you review the pieces in this anthology, you feel a sense of communal healing with all your relations. With love to all my relations,””
