Anodyne Vol. 3

Anodyne Magazine is an arts and literature magazine highlighting the intersectional experiences of the FLINTA* community's global health. The publication was co-founded by Veronica Zora Kirin and Katarina Eva Yepez in 2023 in the hopes that at least a few more FLINTA* individuals, looking for an outlet reflecting experiences of health, might find comfort in the pages between it's covers. *** Volume 3 Contributors: Guest Editor: Maria Lougheed Featured Writer: Dameien Nathaniel Tracie Adams Cassie McCoy Maria McLeod Jessica Irish Robb Kunz Ahimsa Timoteo Bodhrán Maudie Bryant Emily Marie Passos Duffy Erin Brown Dani Janae Bett Truong K.

Crow Emily Wittenhagen Ariana Grace Croese Sara Lynn Eastler Jordan Nishkian Katy Luxem *** After lifetimes of silencing by an unaccommodating system we have had enough. Our voices have been muffled, our needs ignored, misdiagnosed, and misunderstood. Billions of FLINTA* exist, frustrated by patriarchal structures and standards for health. It's our time to be heard. We refuse to accept outdated solutions to contemporary issues. Anodyne (meaning pain relief) Magazine is a trimesterly periodical offering an opportunity to voice our experiences to the masses. We exist not only for catharsis but also progress. With the intersectional contributions featured in our magazine, we hope to change the existing health paradigm. We are listening. We support you.
