Red Canary Collective is a non-profit collective that provides creative and strategic support to communities working towards a more sustainable and equitable future.

They work with philanthropists, journalists, nonprofits, filmmakers, and photographers to create media that helps promote a more sustainable future through their Red Canary Magazine.

Background of Red Canary Magazine

Red Canary Magazine brings deeply reported journalism that is dedicated to highlighting the existential environmental, sustainability, and social justice issues. Sponsored by the Red Canary Collective, and edited by award-winning Los Angeles-area journalist Joe Donnelly, the magazine was launched during the peak of the pandemic and has been swimming against the tides of conventional wisdom ever since.

Some highlights include Erin Aubry Kaplan on radically rethinking police reform, Phuong-Cac Nguyen’s cross-generational conversation exploring the weight of culture and identity, and Sam Slovick’s essential reporting from the U.S. and Mexico border. Here’s a video chronicling more of this difference-making work from the Red Canary team. 

Here are some more samples of the great work Red Canary Magazine has put together over the past months.

• A Trail of Hope and Fear: From Honduras to Mexico and back with migrant caravaners.
