Editorial Focus
Collateral is an online literary journal run by volunteers who are directly and indirectly impacted by violent conflict and military service. The editors publish literary and visual art exploring those spaces beyond the combat zone, where the “collateral” effects of war are felt for generations, including the immigrant story, the military family story, the reintegration and survival and protest story, and more.
