Bronx Biannual Issue 2 Inspired by monocle-rocking New Yorker magazine mascot Eustace Tilley, the cover of Issue 2 sports a blunt-smoking B-boy illustrated by artist Chesiel John. Author Sheree Renée Thomas takes us to the depths of Hell, D. Scot Miller sucks us into a graffiti mural (spoiler alert), Michael A. Gonzales returns with a tale of tolerance in the jazz age, and Liza Jessie Peterson guards the legacy of Zora Neale Hurston. You won’t want to miss the in-depth interview with blackface minstrel rapper Ace Boon Coon and fiction by Carol Taylor, Bahiyyih Davis, Miles Marshall Lewis, Sun Singleton, t’ai freedom ford, SékouWrites, kelly a. abel, Kenji Jasper and Jerry A. Rodriguez. Poetic reflections on New Orleans and Haiti are offered up by Staceyann Chin and Natasha Labaze, respectively. |
