Rebellion

Due to various personal and work-related reasons, we have decided to put the More of Us editorial project on hold. Therefore, this is the last issue we will publish for now. We recognize that we do not have enough time and energy to continue with this effort, which has tended to be more burdensome for all the people involved and has led us to abandon the collective work at different times.
With the intention of reflecting on the process, and by way of closure, we had the following conversation to think together about this process and the reasons that have led us to make this decision.
We greatly appreciate the dedication and patience of all the people who in one way or another have contributed to build this platform for thinking about the South: writers, photographers, translators and artists. Especially to those who have performed administrative and maintenance tasks. We hope that we will be able to coincide in other dialogues.

Fear of violence has always been part of our daily lives. For some, rebellion is the best way to make their voices heard. For others, it is a torment. They become victims of situations they didn’t create. Fear creates endurance, and endurance leads to rebellion. In times like these, rebellion always has two sides: it serves the oppressor and victimizes the oppressed. But when the oppressed rebel, another story begins!

In the context of the forthcoming Rebellion issue, we are launching an open call to participate with visual and written content related to the issue’s concerns. More of Us will address the relationships woven by a variety of initiatives around self-organisation, collective action, social movements, activism and land struggles in the Global South from a practical approach.
