Inheritance Magazine: Celebrating Asian and Pacific Islander Identity through Christian Faith
Inheritance magazine is a unique platform that celebrates the stories, experiences, and reflections of Asian and Pacific Islander (API) communities. It is an independent project that aims to provide a space for API voices to be heard, affirmed, and valued in the context of Christian faith.
The magazine was founded in 2011 by a group of API Christians who felt the need for a publication that would address the lack of representation and diversity in mainstream Christian media. They wanted to create a space where API Christians could share their stories, struggles, joys, and insights without having to conform to dominant cultural norms or expectations.
Since then, Inheritance has grown into a vibrant community of writers, artists, editors, readers, and supporters who are passionate about promoting API identity and culture within the broader context of Christian faith. The magazine publishes online articles on various topics such as theology, spirituality, social justice issues affecting APIs globally or locally.
One thing that sets Inheritance apart from other publications is its commitment to intersectionality. The magazine recognizes that being an API Christian means navigating multiple identities such as race/ethnicity/culture/language/gender/sexuality/class/ability etc., which can intersect with one's faith journey in complex ways. Therefore it seeks to explore these intersections through its content by featuring diverse perspectives from different regions/countries/denominations/traditions/generations etc.
Another distinctive feature of Inheritance is its emphasis on storytelling as a powerful tool for building community and fostering empathy across differences. The magazine believes that everyone has a story worth telling regardless of their background or status; therefore it encourages readers to submit their own stories or pitches for consideration.
Moreover Inheritance also hosts events like webinars/workshops/conferences/book clubs etc., where readers can engage with each other directly on various topics related to API identity/faith/life. These events provide opportunities for learning/sharing/connecting/networking among people who share similar interests/passions/goals.
Overall Inheritance Magazine offers an invaluable resource for anyone interested in exploring the rich diversity within Asian Pacific Islander communities while also deepening their understanding of Christianity's global impact today!
