Do Not Go Quietly is looking for stories about resistance!

Maximum word count is 7,500! Pay is $.06 per word with a minimum payment of $60! It looks like, if your story is accepted, then you'll be published alongside authors like Seanan McGuire!

From their submission page:

We are looking for original work that has not be previously published. Stories should be about resistance and revolution set within the science fiction and fantasy genres. Resistance can be a small act of everyday defiance. And other times, resistance means massive movements that topple governments and become iconic historical moments. Either way, there is power in these acts. What your characters are resisting is up to you, the writer. The things we fight against, the inequality, abuse, and unjust treatment are personal, and each define an individual's life experience. Use your experiences, look at the world around you, and tell your story.

They welcome authors regardless of age or background, so you should totally submit a story.

Here's the submission page!
Here's the kickstarter page for the anthology.

Is this open internationally or just to people from the United States? "National origin" is mentioned but not nationality which makes me wonder.

^What Stella said. I'd love to enter but I'm from the UK, so I don't know if I can.

The backs of my eyes hum with things I've never done.

Give me a few days and I'll get back to y'all with an answer -- I can't find anything on the submissions page, but I'll see about sending an email to confirm.

It had a perfectly round door like a porthole, painted green, with a shiny yellow brass knob in the exact middle. The door opened on to a tube-shaped hall like a tunnel: a very comfortable tunnel without smoke, with panelled walls, and floors tiled and carpeted, provided with polished chairs, and lots and lots of pegs for hats and coats—the hobbit was fond of visitors. The tunnel wound on and on, going fairly but not quite straight into the side of the hill —The Hill, as all the people for many miles round called it—and many little round doors opened out of it, first on one side and then on another.
