Description
The Gerald Kraak Award showcases some of the most provocative works of fiction, poetry, journalism, photography, and academic writing by allies of the LGBTQI+ community as fierce defenders of human rights. Curated by some of our favorite thinkers—Sisonke Msimang, Mark Gevisser, and Sylvia Tamale—this anthology is not only a celebration of emerging writers from across the continent, it also provides a space for storytellers to keep doing what they love and to turn what they love into careers. The second offering in the Gerald Kraak annual anthology, As You Like It, is a collection of the short-listed entries submitted for the Gerald Kraak Award. This anthology offers a window into deeply located visions and voices across Africa. It brings together stories of self-expression, identity, sexuality, and agency, all located within Africa and its legacy.
