It's here, the Summer 2005 issue of the Free Press! Click "Read More" below to download the pdf and see it online. Expect to see it in your favorite independent coffee shops in a few days!

One important thing to note is that this is the last issue of the Free Press. That's right, this summer we will be changing the name of the paper! Send your name ideas to sdfp at lists.mutualaid.org .

Thank you very much to all of our contributors and supporters, and we're sorry for shortening the amazing articles we had to cut down. You'll notice that the Free Press is now in English and en Español, because we are dedicated to to breaking down the borders that separate us and respecting the cultural diversity of our community.

Restarting the SD Free Press, Summer 2005 Issue

Mon, 09 May 2005 01:10:10 GMT

Hello there. We are restarting the San Diego Free Press after a long vacation in which we were up to our necks in other kinds of media. There is a ton of news of critical importance happening here in San Diego on a daily basis, and we're going to try to take our media making efforts out of the ether and back into the physical realm. We also plan to have lots of content in the new Free Press en español, since we have been doing serious work on translation for our website.

We're currently planning on covering the following topics in the next issue of the Free Press:

The MinuteMen
Pablo Paredes and War Resisters
Homelessness in San Diego
Student Movements - Budget Cuts and Living Wage
The Border, borderHack

We're hoping to have stories on:

CAFTA
Counter Inaugural Action Summary

The deadlines for this issue, which we're trying to get out asap to get back on our feet is:

Submissions by May 15, 2005
Ads by May 20, 2005
Send to the printers on May 31, 2005

The San Diego Free Press is a project of San Diego Indymedia, http://sandiego.indymedia.org .
