Our Mission

Where Are You From

WAYF is an international journal with the mission to promote literature and art that transcends man-made boundaries. WAYF stands for Where Are You From, a loaded question for many who have a heritage that is different from their place of birth or residence.

WAYF aims to help disarm this question and reclaim our identities beyond where we are from.

"The consequence of the single story is that it robs people of dignity. It makes our recognition of our equal humanity difficult and it emphasizes that we are different rather than how we are similar."
— Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie
