New York, NY -- (ReleaseWire) -- 12/19/2011 --phati’tude Literary Magazine is pleased to announce its open submission call for its upcoming Winter issue, ¿WHAT’S IN A NOMBRE?

The submission deadline is January 6, 2012. Writers and artists are encouraged to review submission guidelines and send in their work.

"¿WHAT’S IN A NOMBRE? Writing Latin@ Identity in America" sets out to investigate the evolution of the terms “Latino” and “Hispanic” and whether or not there is or ever was a group to which it applies without being reductive. The editors seek poetry, essays, interviews, short stories, translations and artwork that address the essential question: ¿Qué hay en un nombre? What’s in a name? ¿What’s in a nombre? The editors are particularly interested in works that investigate social protest and exploitation; the migratory experience; self-exploration or self-definition, including the exploration of myths and legends.
