Mission Statement / Editorial Focus
PAPER BRIGADE, the annu­al print literary jour­nal of Jew­ish Book Coun­cil, reflects the Jew­ish literary land­scape in America and abroad. Named in hon­or of the group of writ­ers and intel­lec­tu­als in the Vil­na Ghet­to who res­cued thou­sands of Jew­ish books and doc­u­ments from destruc­tion by the Nazis, the journal is com­prised of arti­cles, inter­views, fic­tion, poet­ry, and artwork that, together, celebrate the breadth and diver­si­ty of Jew­ish books today. PAPER BRIGADE’s editors are com­mit­ted to amplifying the voices of Jew­ish-inter­est authors of all back­grounds, includ­ing those from mar­gin­al­ized com­mu­ni­ties and writ­ers in trans­la­tion whose work may not oth­er­wise be avail­able in Eng­lish. The journal seeks to expand com­mon­ly held ideas of what con­sti­tutes the Jew­ish expe­ri­ence, and to highlight the essential place of Jewish books in the wider literary world.
