Some knowledge has never lived on the page.

It lives in bodies. In movement. In sound. In ritual. In creative acts that refuse silence.

Voiceless Shouts, Unruly Arts & Embodied Resistance is a peer-reviewed digital journal dedicated to the rigorous exploration of embodied knowledge and aesthetic resistance, with a focus on Africana, diasporic, Indigenous, and Global Majority perspectives. The journal centers creative and performative practices as theory-producing sites—archives of history, memory, and political imagination.

Why Voiceless Shouts?

Voiceless Shouts begins from the understanding that some knowledge has never lived on the page. Voiceless Shouts matters because it challenges the assumption that knowledge is produced only through written text, formal archives, or sanctioned institutions. The journal commences from a different premise: that bodies think, movements remember, images argue, sounds theorize, and creative practices carry histories that dominant systems often fail to recognize. By centering provocative arts, embodied scholarship, and aesthetic resistance, Voiceless Shouts creates a space where gesture, performance, ritual, visuality, and public expression are understood as vital forms of knowledge production.
