Since it was founded in 2002 by editors Ross Cunningham and Shadi Rahimi, SNAG staff have raised enough money to publish three, full-color print magazines through magazine sales and grants. Stories by SNAG writers have appeared in the award-winning youth magazine Youth Outlook (YO!), and reprinted in other online publications. Some SNAG stories have even been published internationally over the Pacific News Service newswire. Requests to reprint SNAG stories should be sent to [EMAIL PROTECTED]. In the past, SNAG was funded by Force of Change in Oakland, and sponsored by Friendship House Association of American Indians Inc. in San Francisco, and Native American Health Center in Oakland. Our first edition was published through POOR Press, and our fundraising events were held with the great help and financial assistance of the Youth Services Department of Native American Health Center in Oakland. Half the cost of our website has been paid for by Pacific News Service, which is also paying for its monthly upkeep. Recently, we were awarded a grant to publish the 2005 issue of SNAG from Honor the Earth! Our fiscal sponsor is Community Futures Collective. Thank you all of our sponsors! We are now accepting submissions for our next issue. We are raising the rest of the money to pay for printing by selling editions of our magazines. The 2003 issue, which has a red cover featuring the illustration of Pomo artist Kirby Cunningham, is $3. The 2004 issue, which has a blue cover featuring the work of artist Jesse Hernandez, is $5, and includes a 12-song CD. Featured Native artists and groups include Aztlan Underground, Blackfire, Casper Lomayesva, Ras K'Dee, and Omaya. http://www.snagmagazine.com/ ___\ Stay Strong\ \ "Be a friend to the oppressed and an enemy to the oppressor" \ --Imam Ali Ibn Abu Talib (as)\ \ "This mathematical rhythmatical mechanism enhances my wisdom\ of Islam, keeps me calm from doing you harm, when I attack, it's Vietnam"\ --HellRazah\ \ "It's not too good to stay in a white man's country too long"\ --Mutabartuka\ \ "As for we who have decided to break the back of colonialism, \ our historic mission is to sanction all revolts, all desperate \ actions, all those abortive attempts drowned in rivers of blood."\ - Frantz Fanon\ \ "Everyday is Ashura and every land is Kerbala"\ -Imam Ja'far Sadiq\ \ http://scratchcue.blogspot.com/\ \ http://www.sleepybrain.net/vanilla.html\ \ http://www.world-crisis.com/analysis_comments/766_0_15_0_C/ \ \ http://ilovepoetry.com/search.asp?keywords=braithwaite&orderBy=date\ \ http://www.lowliferecords.co.uk/\ \ } |
