POOR magazineŠ 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 NetworkŠ (PNN).
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 for subscription
