This week's issue of Strange Horizons is a bit different. We do have original work for you—but throughout the week, we are also re-presenting a selection of stories, poems, and non-fiction from our archives. Their shared theme is resistance. Like all our issues, we hope that this week offers a sense of community, and that you may find some courage or inspiration in the stories and ideas it includes.

Obviously there is a proximate cause for this issue, but it is not an issue about that cause. It is about challenges to a just society that are long-term and global.

And it is, as much as anything, a reminder and a challenge to ourselves. This is a part of what Strange Horizons has been, and must continue to be. It is a critical part, in more than one sense: as it says in our guidelines, we aspire to be a part of a vibrant, radical, international and inclusive tradition of speculative fiction, and that means recognising and addressing the inadequacies of our politics, as well as celebrating their possibilities.

That is what we will be working on, in the months and years ahead. We hope you will join us.

Strange Horizons
We are very happy to welcome Dante Luiz as a new fiction editor on the team! Dante is a Ignyte Award winning author, and has been with Strange Horizons working as an Art Director for the past several years. We’re stoked to bring him on to the fiction side and have him bring his wonderful insight and skill to the fiction team.
Day in and day out, the rough waters of the Pacific slam themselves against the protrusion of sandstone the locals refer to as Morro Rock. White streaks of bird shit bleed down the rock, a testament to the rare birds of prey that nest in its pocked face overlooking the bay.
in my defence, juggling biological and artificial, i tripped over my shoelace, and spilled my lungs empty of the innocence that was, before guilt.
the birds, / who carry with them / the many names of the dead
