Dear TRIBES Friends:

HAPPY HOLIDAYS!

As we reflect on the past 7 years of TRIBES Magazine and its impact online and in the indie community, the journey has been incredible! Thank you for helping make this one of TRIBES Magazine’s best years ever. We had record-breaking hits to our website; we collaborated with new artists, writers & musicians across the globe; and we introduced a variety of new shows to TRIBES TV online and NC public TV. TRIBES Magazine is on track for even bigger things in 2012!

We’re kicking off the new year with a week of daily discussions on TRIBES FACEBOOK (also reposted here on our new BLOG). We invite you to participate in our NEW YEAR’S forum on topics including: Reality TV and the politics of representation; Bringing in the New Year TRIBES’ style; Shout Outs to the Arts Collectives; ACC HOOPS; and discussions of Women in HIP HOP in preparation for the SPRING 2012 issue featuring an interview with female emcee, SHELLY B! Please sound off each day btw Dec 26-Jan 2 and visit our newly redesigned website at http://www.tribesmagazine.com. TRIBES Magazine is always seeking writers, artists, photographers and musicians who are interested in publishing their work. Also seeking journalists to join the team.

Thank you again for your continued support.
Happy Holidays and have a creative New Year!
