We are an online magazine dedicated to exploring the legal and social underpinnings of justice — or lack thereof — here in America. We’re keenly invested in championing equity vis-a-vis the laws on the books that don’t get enforced.
We’re here for workers’ rights, racial, economic, climate, and reproductive justice, tribal sovereignty, housing discrimination (and everything in between) all run through the lens of taking what we deserve. Our legal rights.
We’re on the prowl for journalists, lawyers, educators, historians, activists, artists and organizers to help us evolve and grow our publication in 2022.
HERE’S SOME THEMES WE’RE INTERESTED IN:
- history pieces on the evolution of workers’ rights, labor organizing, and the like + why it impacts where we’re at today
- current events coverage in/around the labor movement, civil rights litigation + news (Previous topics have included coverage on Dobbs, HB1, unionization + the gig economy)
- photo-essays from the front-lines of labor
- arts + culture (including books, films and theater) that explicitly dovetail with social justice
- interviews with movers and shakers from the movement (organizers, academics, working people in the movement)
- social theory pieces (the detrimental psychology of being “rated” on gig platforms, for example)
Perhaps most importantly, we’re here to serve as a platform for first-hand stories from underserved communities most affected when laws go unenforced. (We’re excited by personal essays if the “I” serves a larger societal dialogue and is supported by reporting.) Word count in/around 800-1500. Rate $250.
