The second issue of ARISE, New Orleans Indymedia's Quarterly Publication, will be coming out in early September. We are not only asking the community for submissions and/or suggestions for articles, but we'd like to find out how we could better fill a community need with this project.
Please email our listserv:
imc-neworleans@lists.indymedia.org
For those who may not be familiar with New Orleans Indymedia, it is an
open publishing website where you, and everyone, can go to add events
to the calendar, general news, photos, audio recordings or videos to
share with the wider New Orleans community. It is completely
volunteer-run and held together by the belief in independent, not
corporate, run media outlets.
Thank you for any involvement you can muster.
In unity and strength,
New Orleans Indymedia Team
