POOR magazine© is a literary, visual arts
based community organization founded by a previously homeless, currently
at-risk, mother daughter team. POOR provides vocational training, creative
arts and literacy education, new and multi-media access to very low and
no income adults and children in the Bay Area, with the goal of deconstructing
the margins of class and race oppression.
Our programs include an intensive Media Studies
program which teaches investigative journalism, photo-journalism, multi-media
and broadcasting to bay area residents transitioning off of welfare who
desire to be heard and seen within several highly inaccessible media industries.
To further accomplish our goals, we produce an intentionally glossy, nationally
distributed literary magazine, as well as a high quality on-line magazine
and our newest adventure; Poor News Network© (PNN), a digital news
broadcast.
PLEASE TUNE IN!
Poor is solely supported by grants, donations,
and subscription sales.
Poor works on a sliding scale distribution process - every paid
subscription or donation sponsors a free subscription for a very low or
no income person
