As you may have recently noticed, we have reluctantly suspended all operations at IC Magazine.
This was not an easy decision to make. As a labour of love and necessity, IC was founded nearly ten years ago to draw attention to the struggles, needs, rights, interests and concerns of all Indigenous Peoples around the world. We want nothing more than to continue this work, however we cannot do it without your support.
During our recent fundraiser, a total of 48 people from around the world heard our call and we deeply, deeply appreciate it; but we can’t stop there. We still need to raise another $2865 in order to cover our basic operating expenses for the first half of 2014.
As a part of this effort, we have started a follow-up campaign on indiegogo, which you can check out here http://igg.me/at/long-live-ic/
We will be back in full force as soon as possible!
Across the world right now, Indigenous peoples are facing a renewed assault on their lands, rights, and ways of life.
From extractive industries pushing deeper into ancestral territories, to governments rolling back hard-won protections,
the threat is global—and it is growing.
What makes this moment especially dangerous is how little attention it receives.
Stories like this are disappearing in real time. Mainstream media
barely covers it and the coverage is fragmented. The public is left without the context
needed to understand what is truly at stake.
That is exactly why IC Magazine exists..
For more than 20 years, IC has reported on Indigenous struggles worldwide — consistently, independently, and without compromise.
We don’t follow news cycles; we trace patterns. We don’t sensationalize; we provide context.
And when the world looks away, we stay focused.
But this work is increasingly difficult to sustain.
We refuse to lock our reporting behind a paywall. We don’t sell access through subscriptions.
And we don’t answer to advertisers. IC Magazine survives solely because readers like you choose to
support independent Indigenous journalism.
Please donate today if you can. Every contribution helps us to continue this crucial work.
Thank you,
John Ahni Schertow
Founder and Editor in Chief
