ACA The Underground needs and wants you to contribute/join/edit etc for the revived online publication.
I'll write, just tell me what to do. Is this related to a particular ideology?
No. I mean I am an Anarchist-Communist but not dogmatic. Anything progressive will be accepted. If you check out the site and scroll down you can quickly get a feel for the kind of thing we're doing. So far I have just been doing the 'guess the headline' comedy thing and commenting on news articles but you can do anything really, either something topical or informative etc I'll give some examples: What is... (socialism, communism, anarchism, green-left etc) Anything topical General topics (gay rights, human rights, war, equality etc) Short comics (if you have some talent as long as it's connected with something left-wing). Posters Squatting/homelessness Free free to add some humour/piss taking when writing articles (you don't have to just a suggestion).
I'm in
That's fantastic, I just made a poster on GIMP and uploaded it. Also any feedback would be great, changes, suggestions etc. I don't know if you have your own blog or website but if you do it can be added to teh blogroll of the site. Also feel free to post on the articles, might help get the ball rolling so to speak.
In order for TU to grow and develop it of course requires articles published on a regular basis but there are many other aspects that need some focus and time. TU currently only has me as a permanent 'member of staff' (for the want of a better term) and then there are (and will be) ad-hoc article contributors. TU doesn't want people to take on more than they can handle, this has contributed to the failure of many a left-wing publication. If anyone is interested in getting involved with TU beyond article contribution that would be greatly welcomed. TU needs people to: Help promote the publication (twitter, facebook, blog posting as TU etc) Find more like-minded people to help write articles Help develop the website, making it more user-friendly etc Help ensure article and website quality, spelling, content-suitability Argue/debate respectfully with other people who reply to posts Update non-article content such as 'about' the history, contact page etc Point-of-contact, at the moment I am the only e-mail address on the contact page, there could be at some point a point-of-contact per country or speciality (such as politics, media, theory etc) Any thoughts or ideas please let us know.
Feel free to add my email, I can get a bloke for us too. I could be a permanant member, I have LOTS of free time and no social life
Feel free to add my email, I can get a bloke for us too. I could be a permanant member, I have LOTS of free time and no social life perfect! I will add you to the contact page.
I forgot to mention this before but on the website I have made a simple ACA The Underground banner but to be honest I am not very happy with it, if anyone has any talent we could really do with a better one.
Things are going great but we're still looking for new writers.
We need more writers!!
This is pretty old but I've had a journalist class in school and I've published some stuff for them think I could join.
