Portside Review is an international digital journal emerging from the foam of the Indian Ocean. We publish essays, short stories, poems, conversations and reviews for and from these coastal homes. Portside Review has special connection to Boorloo (Perth), Mumbai, and Singapore, and forms an archipelago from Kinjarling to Karachi to Cape Town. We take in lots of cities, towns, countries along the way, sailing and swimming and being swept up in currents and tides with fish and squid. Portside Review is an act of cross-cultural community creation, being pulled together by a team who collaborate, who labour for a greater cause than the individual alone. We come from many places with many histories, and yet, we are all mixed up, like the waves that lap and lap again on shores right here and across the world as well. Portside Review is a creative project from Centre for Stories. We are housed in their building, staffed by their workers, and funded through their kindness. Like them, we are committed to diversity, equity, justice, healing and connection, and are inspired by stories and storytellers. Centre for Stories empowers people whose experiences and perspectives are often marginalised. This includes Indigenous and First Nations, refugees, migrants, people of colour, people who identify as LGBTQIA+, older people, and people living with disability. They present high quality stories and promote excellent craft, unique perspectives and ethical values. You can see other Centre for Stories projects here. Portside Review acknowledges, celebrates and respects the traditional owners of where we make it – the Whadjuk people of Noongar boodjar/land. We thank the Country, Ancestors and Elders from the past, present and future, who continue to guide the life of our city Boorloo/Perth. We extend that gratitude to all sovereign peoples along the Indian Ocean and believe in working together for a better tomorrow.
