Gal-Dem, Issue 7: Utopia/Dystopia

In our UTOPIA/DYSTOPIA print issue, we’re delving into realities both existing and imagined to reflect on the world we currently live in. The past few years have seen constant shifts in governmental policies, devastating environmental challenges and a building momentum of collective resistance.

In turn, we’re reflecting on the disturbing realities we’re faced with, and channeling the hope of new possibilities.

Featuring interviews, features and poems alongside beautiful visuals and photography, we’re finding inspiration from creatives across various realms, whose work offers promise and a glimpse into the kind of future we want to see. With the importance of community more discernible than ever, we speak to collectives and individuals about finding liberation in spaces that embrace and welcome them wholly. Crucially, we’re also looking back to examine the political histories and cultural touchpoints that have led us to this point.

Whether you connect more with fears of dystopian outcomes, or find comfort in the dreams of a utopian world, we hope that you enjoy exploring our many visions for the future.
