Onyx Black Wealth Collective - Freelance Journalist Opening

Full details and application instructions in JD. Please submit resume, cover letter.

This is my regular callout for pitches for the Globe and Mail's business opinion section. Pitch me at elou@globeandmail.com. For reference, these are the pieces that have run in my section: buff.ly/44EmWcA.

For our second issue, we are planning to create our first PRINT issue exploring the idea of the archive in audio documentary. 

An archive can be anything from a historical record of sounds (a collection of recordings of animal sounds, a repository of found sounds from thrift store mixtapes, recordings of supreme court arguments, voicemails from a deceased family member…) to an assemblage of sound across time, even space. It can be both literal and expansive. 

We’re inspired by Saidiya Hartman, who works with what she has called “the scraps” of the archive.  “I work a lot with unknown persons, nameless figures, ensembles, collectives, multitudes, the chorus. That’s where my imagination of practice resides. That’s where my heart resides,” says Hartman.

Do you work with archival sounds? Do you consider your work itself an archive (or part of an archive)? 

Sound and audio can be ephemeral, both as we experience them in real time and in their digital incarnation. How does sound become archive, when does it become archive, and what does it mean to view audio documentarians as archivists?

We are interested in pitches for short essays (1500-2000 words) that bring us provocative ideas and surprising insights into the intersection of audio documentary practice and the idea of the archive.

#WritingOpportunity: MIT Technology Review is seeking pitches for an upcoming print issue. The theme is Creativity.

As always, the theme is a loose prompt. We're looking for pitches for longer pieces: narrative features, compelling investigations, essential profiles, and super-sharp essays. This call for pitches is mostly aimed at journalists, but if you're an expert with a strong idea, please don't hesitate to reach out.

Please note that we will likely be getting *a lot* of pitches on AI and creativity. This is not to dissuade you from pitching on that topic if you feel like you have a strong and specific idea. But we would especially welcome pitches on other subjects, ones that interpret the theme in other ways. Perhaps you have a story about a creative solution to a problem. Or about an area that impacts or is impacted by creativity.

The pitch deadline is Wednesday December 4. If you haven't seen it, please review our pitch guide (https://lnkd.in/ghW8vbiT). It includes general pitching advice, word rates, my e-mail address, and other helpful details.

The IWMF's Kim Wall Memorial Fund will provide $5,000 grants to journalists whose work embodies the spirit of Kim’s reporting. The grant will fund women or nonbinary reporters covering subculture, broadly defined, and what Kim liked to call “the undercurrents of rebellion.” Kim wanted more women to be out in the world, brushing up against life, and the Kim Wall Memorial Fund honors this legacy.
