Sojourners for Justice Press (SJP) is an New York City-based micro-press devoted to the creation of print-based publications that engage do-it-yourself, Black feminist, and abolitionist philosophies.

SJP is represented by Assembling Voices Fellow Neta Bomani, a teacher, zine maker, and one half of Sojourners for Justice Press. SJP's initaitive, Binding Our Stories: Black DIY Publishing into the Future, aimed to create a series of workshops for emerging and established Black publishers. This initiative connected publishers with alternative techniques, networks, and knowledge production.

This work culminated in the Black Zine Fair, held at Powerhouse Arts in Brooklyn in May 2024. Visitors participated in workshops, made zines at a zine-making station, and met with exhibitors including Cassandra Press.
