Description

Scalawag dreams up abolitionist futures and shares its vision through journalism and storytelling. It works in solidarity with oppressed communities in the South, disrupting and shifting narratives that concentrate power and wealth among the few. The organization sparks critical conversations about the diverse Souths where people live, love, and struggle. Committed to community-supported, nonprofit journalism, Scalawag relies on individual donors and foundations for support while subscription sales help cover ongoing costs.
