Welcome.
Black Lines Journal exists to uplift all underrepresented voices in the humanities, while honoring the previous journal’s mission to pay special attention to Black voices and perspectives.


Our Mission:
Establish a journal that upholds high standards of academic excellence across the humanities and celebrates excellence in studies by and about underrepresented minorities, while honoring the previous journal’s mission to give special attention to Black scholarship.
Want to Get Involved?
Black Lines Journal is currently accepting submissions in the humanities from undergraduate scholars for our inaugural issue: Black Joy!
We invite research essays, creative writing, and critical commentary that celebrate underrepresented perspectives and adhere to our mission.
You can find the Submission form through our Get Involved page.
