Please forward widely: "Turning the Tide: Journal of Anti-Racist Action, Research & Education" is now in its unparalleled 25th year of publication and going strong as a grassroots voice of resistance and liberation. More than 1500 copies of every issue are distributed free to prisoners (over 500 in California alone, more than a thousand around the rest of the U.S.).
You can check out "Turning the Tide" online at www.antiracist.org for PDFs of recent back issues, or at http://tideturning.org for a dynamic, contemporary web-site with expanded elements beyond what appears in the print edition, including associated projects like "Break the Lock," archiving prisoners' letters and other writings. You can "like" us on facebook at www.facebook.com/tideturning Or you can go farther and help this publication survive and thrive as a grassroots voice of opposition to colonialism, white supremacy, sexism, and all forms of oppression and exploitation by taking out a subscription or making a donation to subsidize a prisoner subscription (or both). "Turning the Tide" keeps publishing without corporate underwriting, partisan subsidies, government or foundation grants or commercial advertising -- so it's free to continue to provide hard-hitting exposes and uncompromising analysis, perspectives from oppressed, incarcerated and colonized people struggling for freedom, justice and liberation. Or sign up for our low-volume electronic news update and alert.
