{"product_id":"cosy-desi-club-magazine-issue-3-in-protest","title":"The Cosy Desi Club Magazine - Issue 3: In Protest","description":"\u003cp\u003eYorkshire-based The Cosy Desi Club was set up in 2023, born of a real need for more spaces to uplift South Asian creatives. What began as an online platform has grown into a series of in-person events and now a print magazine to showcase the range of talent and stories from the community.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReleased in July 2026, Issue 3 brings together 43 contributors from across the diaspora, each responding to the theme \u003cem\u003eIn Protest\u003c\/em\u003e. Across poetry, essays, visual art, photography, music, and experimental work, the issue looks at what it means to resist - on the streets, at home, and in the body.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis issue holds work that confronts genocide, austerity, and the systems and governments that displace and define lives. Alongside this are internal refusals: the daily acts of saying no, of not disappearing into what’s expected.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eIn Protest\u003c\/em\u003e moves through anger, solidarity, and survival without trying to resolve them. What comes through in this issue is protest as something that’s both collective and solitary, but always urgent in the way we respond.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eContributors:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAdam Iqbal, Aleena Maryam, Aminah Mahmood, Amish Gudur, Ananya Banda, Ashini Shashidaran, Devika Lishanin, Dhwani (Cypher) Mendi, Duriba Khan, Fareeha Ahmad, Hamza Jahanzeb, HARREE, Humza Syed, Ishika Desai, Judy Jothini, Khola, Maaz Hayat, Maria Mian, Natasha Tareen, Noor Afasa, Omkari Nemani, Pavan Atwal, Prishika Nagar, R.
