Grab a nice glass of your favorite beverage– coffee, bush tea, lemon water, or coconut water–and head on over to Moko Magazine. Issue 5 of the Virgin Islands based journal went online yesterday. Visionary Editors, Richard Georges and David Knight Jr, open the issue reflecting on the first annual Virgin Islands Literary Arts Festival and the strength of the contemporary Caribbean writer and artist.

You’ll find “Caribbean Arts and Letters” by David Berg, Shansi Miller, Malcolm Friend, Letisia Cruz, Reuwel Lewi, Kavita Ganness, Mark James Cooper, Hadiya Sewer Gibney (yours truly) and Daisy Lafond! 

Moko creates space for a re ordering of human geography, one that is willing to explore the tangled parts of our Caribbean subjectivities.
