Turning the Tide

Turning the Tide is a collectively run news magazine based in Corpus Christi, Texas. I founded this publication in February 2006 and am the principal co-editor of this publication.

Turning the Tide aims to discuss social, political, and economic themes from a radical/progressive viewpoint (especially those relevant to Texas where possible); to expand community understanding of these themes; and to provide a voice and organizational apparatus for citizens committed to spreading social justice by helping disintegrate poverty, classism, racism, sexism, homophobia, xenophobia, war, and other deep-rooted institutional failures.

The New Texas Radical ( 1 items )

One of the upshots of moving to Austin was that Turning the Tide needed a new name and facelift. Thus some friends and I created The New Texas Radical.
Death Penalty Abolition ( 4 items )

Abolishing the death penalty in Texas is a central concern of mine. In June 2006, I joined the Corpus Christi chapter of the Campaign to End the Death Penalty (CEDP), and I have worked on prison and death penalty issues ever since. CEDP is the only national, activist-based abolitionist group in the United States, and is built on the idea that death row inmates and their family members must be at the heart of the abolitionist struggle.

In June 2007, I approached another local group, Texas Coalition to Abolish the Death Penalty, about passing a moratorium on executions for the city of Corpus Christi. Currently, I'm a member of a CEDP-TCADP ad hoc committee whose sole purpose is to press the Corpus Christi City Council to pass a moratorium on resolutions. As a commitee member, I wrote the first draft resolution calling for a moratorium on executions.
Portside Books ( 3 items )

I co-founded Portside Books Collective in November 2006.
