We’re bringing it home to where it all started. Come eat, drink, and be merry with the Slant’d family as we celebrate our boldest issue to date.
It’s the final stop of the Slant’d Issue 02 Launch Tour — and definitely not one to be missed.
ISSUE 2: LIGHT & DARK
Our most provocative issue to date bravely confronts the messiness of self-discovery and celebrates the freedom that comes from reclaiming your identity on your own terms.
Featuring 12 stories in the form of personal essays, poetry, photography, and illustration from 20 #badasians all over the US, Issue 02 shines a light on topics ranging from coming out to colorism; political resistance to reclaiming masculinity; cyberbullying to sexual fantasies; and more.
