(re)thinking walking is a series of posts by jess, bfp and many guest bloggers, individual bloggers, and others about “walking” and rethinking our relationship to it.
If you would like to be a guest blogger, please email us at rethinkingwalking at gmail dot com.
Here are some guidelines to think about before submitting!
What Jess and I would be looking for: any type of medium that can be posted through a blog format that expresses what you understand as your own journey. We’re looking for movement–how you define that is up to you (check out our (re)thinking walking files for starting ideas!).
And as Jess and I have both noted–don’t feel pressure to write up something earth shattering and stunning. A picture of you in your backyard with your kids is just as amazing and revealing and potentially movement creating as the three page long bfp reflection!!!
Finally, women of color, disabled women, gender non-conforming, trans women, immigrant women, and other marginalized women will take precedence in who gets posted when, or if a submission gets posted at all–but allies ARE ENCOURAGED to send something in as well. We *strongly* encourage any ally who sends something in to be aware of how her/his intersecting identities are connected to movement and other people/communities surrounding her/him.
The final decision on what to post will always rest with Jess and I (bfp).
Looking forward to hearing from you!
