Nepantla: An Anthology for Queer Poets of Color brings together a diverse range of poetry from queer poets of colour throughout U.S. history. Founded by Christopher Soto and the Lambda Literary Foundation in 2014, Nepantla is an online journal that celebrates diversity within the queer poetry community. The anthology features contributions from both literary legends and contemporary voices, including Audre Lorde, James Baldwin, June Jordan, Ai, Natalie Diaz, Ocean Vuong, Danez Smith, and many others. This collection showcases a wide range of styles and forms, reflecting the unique experiences of queer poets of colour in the United States.
