Later, LiP became an online Zine , and then resumed print publication in 2003. It continues to be run by a young, all-volunteer staff. LiP takes a satirical, analytical, and often biting approach to what it calls “a culture machine that strips us of our desires and sells them back as product and mass mediocracy.” Editorial contributors include activists like Winona LaDuke and cultural critics like Mark Crispin Miller . LiP is based in the San Francisco Bay Area. It is still edited by Awehali. =Awards= 2006: Two Project Censored Awards: "Brave New World: Surveying Privacy in the Age of Surveillance," (Anna Samson Miranda, Winter 2004) and "Trust Us, We're the Government: How the U.S. Government Stole $137 Billion of Indian Money," (Brian Awehali, Winter 2004) 2005: "Best Culture Coverage" Utne Award Nominee 2004: "Best New Magazine" Utne Award Nominee 2002: "Best Online Culture Coverage" Utne Award Nominee and "Best Content E-Zine" South By Southwest People's Choice Award =Mission Statement= ''LiP takes creative aim at a culture machine that strips us of our desires and sells them back as product and mass mediocracy. Brazen, audacious and presumptuous, LiP combines a biting aesthetic consciousness with a structural understanding of power. Refusing to be colonized by despair, cynicism or apathy, LiP gives voice to those working for a sustainable society rooted in cooperation and diversity. LiP confronts the miserabilist capitalist system with dangerous humor, liberated eroticism and informed revolt.'' |
