gal-dem storytelling

Join gal dem to celebrate, reminisce and respect stories about endings and new beginnings in the Forum.

The only rule: your story has to be 5 minutes long, true and about yourself (and no notes!).

We read stories from women and non binary people of colour every day in spaces like gal dem, but how often do we hear those stories out loud? How often do women and non binary people of colour take to the mic for 5 minutes, uninterrupted, to tell their story?

With their online and print magazine gal dem are addressing inequality and misrepresentation in the industry through platforming the creative and editorial work of young women and non-binary people of colour across essays, opinion, news, arts, music, politics and lifestyle content.
