This collection will center the narratives, that highlight alternative futures, and mythologies of trans and gender-dissident BIPOC creators, stories that reshape worlds, fracture timelines, reclaim cosmologies and spiritualities, and imagine worlds beyond facism and isms within our own terms.
Selected works will be featured in our anthology to be published in late 2026
What We’re Looking For
We welcome original works across the speculative spectrum, including (but not limited to):

° Steamfunk & Cyberfunk
° Mythical and Spiritual retellings and reImaginings
° Genre-blurring narratives
° Transformers
Send us the stories that are rooted in hope and joy, community, magic, ancestry, or rebellion or revolution, decoloniality. Stories where our worlds persist, transform, or begin anew. We would love works that delve into the imaginations of non conformity that shapeshift and imagine new worlds.
Stories could also feature characters like, superhero*ines or antihero*ines, freedom fighters, shapeshifters, healers, mythical beings, revolutionaries the choice is yours.
Who Can Submit
This call is open exclusively to:
Trans, inter and gender-dissident creators Who are also Black, Indigenous, or People of Color

وقتی اینترنت قطع شد، بسیاری از ما از خانوادهها و پیوندهایمان جدا شدیم. و با اتصال تدریجی اینترنت، با خشونت دولتی و کشتار گسترده روبهرو شدیم. از راه دور، بدون امکان مداخله. این تجربهها فقط تروماهای فردی نیستند.
آنها شکلی از خشونت سیاسی و ساختاریاند با اثرات عمیق روانی_اجتماعی.
این ورکشاپ فضایی است
مشترک، امن و حساس به تروما
برای مکث، شنیدهشدن و کنار هم بودن
بدون برچسبزنی،
بدون آسیبانگاری،
بدون الزام بر قویبودن

Machst du auch Bewerbungen und Jobsuche mit KI?
was sind die, Chancen, Grenzen und Alternativen?
Der Workshop bietet einen Überblick zu Bewerbungen, Jobsuche und dem aktuellen Arbeitsmarkt. Künstliche Intelligenz wird dabei kritisch betrachtet: Wo kann sie unterstützen, wo nicht, und welche Risiken gibt es? Gerade für Menschen, die sich nicht in ihrer Muttersprache bewerben, kann KI hilfreich sein aber es bleibt aber nur eines von mehreren Werkzeugen im Bewerbungsprozess. KI ersetzt aber nicht die eigene Denken, Erfahrung und persönliche Entscheidungen.
📍 Ort: LesMigraS, Kulmer Straße 20a, 10783 Berlin
🕓 Zeit: 19. Februar, 16:00 -18:00Uhr
✅ Teilnahme: ohne Anmeldung
Die Veranstaltung findet auf Deutsch und Englisch statt.
Falls ihr eine weitere Sprache braucht, schreibt uns gerne eine E-Mail, wir versuchen, es zu organisieren: refugees@lesmigras.de

The workshop gives an overview of job applications, job searching, and the current job market. We’ll take a practical, critical look at AI: where it can be useful, where it falls short, and what risks come with using it.
For people applying in a language that isn’t their first, AI can be a real help but it’s just one of many tools in the application process. However it doesn’t replace your own critical thinking, experiences, or personal choices.

But anger expressed and translated into action in the service of our vision and our future is a liberating and strengthening act of
clarification, for it is in the painful process of this translation that we identify who are our allies with whom we have grave differences, and who are our genuine enemies.
Anger is loaded with information and energy.

"What we all need to remember is that transgender identity is nothing new. It’s not an ideology or a trend, we have always existed in different ways, on every continent, in every culture, throughout time. Just as with sexuality, someone’s gender identity is defined by their feelings, not their actions. It is who we are, not what we do. So, no matter what governmental roadblocks are implemented, no matter what healthcare, language or books are banned, no matter what misinformation is disseminated, trans people have never stopped and will never stop existing.
If history has shown us anything, the greater the oppression, the greater the resistance."
