TANEASHA WHITE
A Note from Founder and Lead Editor
for UnSung Literary Magazine

Not unlike most of us who attended college, my major was not directly correlated to my career. I was an English major, but I landed my way into the sexual/domestic violence and reproductive justice fields. Alas, I have found solace in weaving writing into my personal life and my "heartwork." 

​

I am a Black, Queer, woman named Taneasha. I live in the south, and attended a PWI (predominantly white institution.) The necessity of safe(r) space and positive representation is something I'm extremely familiar with, and something I don't take lightly. Both the importance and simultaneous lack of these spaces motivated me to create UnSung Literary Magazine. I wanted to offer a platform for folks from my community to have their work acknowledged, shared, and appreciated.

BROOKE TAYLOR
A Note from Featured Editor
for UnSung Literary Magazine Volume II

I have always been passionate about creating spaces that are sex positive and inclusive. 

​

As a Black, trans-masculine person, I have never been able to hide who I am in the world. People often express displeasure about how folx like me present, love, and fuck. Within erotic literature, there is a marked mainstream absence of our queer sex stories. This is why I was excited to work on this project with Taneasha. Everyone deserves a great orgasm! We hope that this anthology will serve two purposes: create accesibility to good, queer, QTPOC centered erotica, and help our readers embrace their sexual identities in new ways. 

​

I want a future where intersections are celebrated and centered. The lack of representation in our media, even literature, is something that I work to combat. We seek to live full, authentic lives in this world. We are now demanding that our sexuality and sensuality be viewed as a primary element.

Bring us the words you've been scared to share.
