If we aren't a melting pot, the best country in the world DUE TO OUR DIVERSITY, what will this mentality bring us?
It will bring us down to a level of mediocrity that every other monocultural country in the world is in.
This behavior is NOT American.

I am SO PROUD to have been both an editor and a contributor to this amazing anthology!

The theme was “Write a story predicting what America will become if Trump and his ilk implement his Agenda 47 platform.”

B-Cubed Press, under the watchful eye of Bob Brown, is sending out an OPEN SUBMISSIONS CALL for an anthology of short stories, essays, and poetry.

The theme of the anthology is REVENGE AND RETRIBUTION, and accepted stories, essays, and poems will get 10 cents a word.

Link in first comment.

LOVE THIS!!!

Any teachers in my feed who are left-leaning, worried about the upcoming second Trump presidency, and willing to beta-read a story I've written for a B Cubed Press anthology entitled REVENGE AND RETRIBUTION?

Coming out just before Inauguration Day?

PM me, if so...

@mgodardricher.bsky.social thank you!
