A safe space to heal
A brave space to grow
The Magpie is more than a blog: it is a resource center for everyone who wants to change our world for the better. We prioritize the voices that mainstream society represses to create a repository of human experience.
Original Storytelling
We started as a blog, but we’ve become so much more. We create interviews, questionnaires, and editorials on social justice topics to be a resource for changemakers. We also create series to discuss themes like mental health, police accountability, and the environment. And we’re not stopping there…
Advocacy Resources
We gather wisdom from community leaders across the country and highlight community trends through our databases. Our databases range from compiling statistics on the Chernobyl disaster to collecting cases on a specific type of police misconduct. We want to be the start point to your organizing journey!
Paid Creative Opportunities
We work with contributors from myriad lived experiences and backgrounds to create a space where anyone can see themselves. It also educates the public on systemic obstacles faced by marginalized communities.
Historical Preservation
We preserve the histories of Maryland nonprofits to honor their work and create a record of advocacy resources for future changemakers. We also collaborate with local coalitions committed to confronting their histories of racial terror violence.
