Shameless Advertisement: Upping The Anti Volume 3

Okay, boys and girls. It's time to put on those party shoes and thinking hats. The latest issue of UTA is out and there's launch parties in TO and Van to go to.

If you don't already know what UTA is, it's this really awesome journal that publishes analyses, critiques and viewpoints about social movements in Canada and that tries its darnest to be from, by and about on-the-ground activists themselves rather than ivory-tower academic polemic-ing. You can find out more about it and read the first 2 issues here. (Read the Intro to UTA 3 here.)

Confession: Okay, so I'm on the Advisory Board and this may cause me to have a biased opinion about the journal. For the record, I have not contributed at all to the 3rd issue, mainly because of geographical and Internet accessibility challenges. So I am shamelessly advertising the launches here to try and make up for it. There's still a whole bunch of folks who read my blog from BC and Ontario, so if you haven't already heard, GO PICK UP YOUR COPY OF UTA 3 TODAY!!

If you are in Singapore, I'm afraid you'll have to wait till the articles are put online. I still have a couple of hard copies of UTA 2, though, so contact me if you want one!
