Welcome To Universal Write Publications
Thank you for showing interest in becoming a UWP Guest Contributor. The UWP Community Forum invites students, community leaders, activists, philosophers, and creative theorists to submit short essays on issues and policies affecting the Black community and the African Diaspora. Articles should offer an incisive, diagnostic take on education, civil rights, gender, race, politics and history, and other topics of interest to national and global communities. Commentary on news reports and national stories is also welcome.
