Their work attends to the everyday realities of undocumented / illegalized migration, trans* resistance, and the expansive capabilities of human and nonhuman bodies. They are the author of Intergalactic Travels: poems from a fugitive alien (The Operating System, 2020), a finalist for the International Latino Book Award and editor of When Language Broke Open: An Anthology of Queer and Trans Black Writers of Latin American Descent (University of Arizona Press, 2023). Alan dreams of a future where forced migration ends and governments stop waging war against sick and disabled kin. Joselia Hughes is an Afro-Caribbean descended writer, visual artist, editor, and educator born, raised, and still living in New York City. Her interdisciplinary work functions alongside the aesthetics of Black englishes, collisions, holes, gaps, incoherence as code, Black debility expressions as creative instruction, and storytelling’s musicality. Joselia authored the chapbooks I Need Fucking Space Like Fuck (Boundaries, 2025) and ½ the Pressure 2x the Speed (Eureka Press, 2025). Currently, she’s working as teaching artist faculty at Lincoln Center for Performing Arts, finishing her MFA in Writing at Milton Avery Graduate School of the Arts at Bard College, and writing a few fiction manuscripts.
