But before that, in 2021, I published a Duke University Press book called Complaint Exclamation Point.

Who Gets to Be Published? with Editor Jackson Howard
J
56:06Jackson HowardGUEST
The best example, I think, I mean, Bronte's...
J
56:11Jackson HowardGUEST
Purnell had an agent actually, but he was on Feminist Press, which is amazing, but tiny.
J
56:18Jackson HowardGUEST
And gaining his trust was literally just like, I wrote him a fan letter and then he was like, let's FaceTime.
J
56:23Jackson HowardGUEST
And then he stayed on my couch and it was a whole thing.

Part Two: Jim Henson: A Complicated Guy Who Made Stories I Really Like
M
64:14Margaret KilljoyHOST
And I have a new zine out.
M
64:16Margaret KilljoyHOST
It's called The Folk Tales of Lowland Sacon, and it is a five-story set in the world of The Sapling Cage, but completely unrelated to the plot or time of The Sapling Cage, which is my trans-witch YA book that came out a couple years from Feminist Press.
M
64:30Margaret KilljoyHOST
But this zine, it comes out from an anarchist collective publisher called Strangers in the Tangled Wilderness, which is at tangledwilderness.org, and it is only six bucks, which is real cheap for a piece of printed media, and it is...
M
64:43Margaret KilljoyHOST
Just frankly, the prettiest thing that I've ever had my name on because it was made beautiful by a whole bunch of people, a whole bunch of people's work.

Before that, she ran the Feminist Press, where she was the youngest director in its history and the first woman of color to lead it.
C
0:28Claire WassermanHOST
Gloria Steinem was her mentor, and then she became Gloria's editor.
C
0:33Claire WassermanHOST
Jamilah and I get into where feminism stands now, which is not where any of us expected it to be, and then we get into money.

19:05Jamia WilsonGUEST
And that was the conversation that made me want to ask my mom about it and look at my grandmothers and more.
J
19:12Jamia WilsonGUEST
And they said, "Oh, we are feminists, and in fact, we were working before most white women were working outside the home." And Black feminism has influenced a lot of what the modern-day feminist conversation is.
J
19:24Jamia WilsonGUEST
And my mother gave me some books from the Feminist Press where I ended up going on to work at later and becoming the director of, that she read about Black feminism and the first Black feminist reader that Feminist Press did, But Some of Us Were Brave.
J
19:39Jamia WilsonGUEST
And so I became very interested in all of this and devouring this content, devouring Gloria Steinem's books, devouring bell hooks.
