Pankaj Mishra & Nesrine Malik: Equator
The founding editors of new magazine Equator discuss its ambition to depict a new world that Western narratives have neglected, in conversation with Hisham Matar.
A new world is emerging. This world, home to most of the human population, had always existed, wonderfully rich in ideas and experiences.
And yet it was obscured for too long in the bright light emanated by a powerful West, its story reduced to a footnote in a grand Anglo-American narrative of cultural and moral progress.
Equator is a new magazine founded by an international collective of writers and editors, which seeks to unravel the monotone global fabric forged during the era of Western dominance and re-fashion it as a tapestry with the colour and variety of the world as it exists.
