With emphasis on the interstices of race, ethnicity, class, or gender, this press invites submissions from Chicana and Latina writers who narrate everyday life within culturally affirming accounts that focus on self- and other-knowledge.

Conocimientos Press places emphasis on those stories that voice the heart of their people, as they document stories of struggle and resistance. In our quest for community knowledge, we call for submissions from those who wish to share their stories. The press aims to provide access to scholarly ideas not available in books. Submit your manuscript. We look forward to working with you in the near future.

Conocimientos Press relies on a feminist and empowering review process with support and advise of those in the author’s field of study who review and affirm readiness for publication. A mentoring design guides each author in their publications.
