Seeking Citizen Journalists

flip-video-cameraIndia Currents is pleased to announce a new initiative with San Jose Beez, an online collaboration of ethnic media organizations featuring hyper-local news content covering the San Jose area.

In addition to the general interest articles and calendar of events featured in our print magazine, we will be presenting online content of specific interest to the ethnic community in San Jose.

We are looking for citizen journalists who will identify and develop stories with an emphasis on the local Indian American community. In addition to excellent writing skills, applicants must have a lively sense of curiosity and a genuine interest in people.

To apply, please send your resume with a sample of your work to publisher[at]indiacurrents.com. Your work can be in the form of a written piece, photo or video essay.

    Hi! Wow this is great news! Is this open to writers only from San Jose area or from across America? I am in Rochester, NY. There is quite a lively Indian community here and in surrounding areas. I am happy to share news from our side.

      Well, India Currents is looking for local coverage, so I don’t know how someone outside the area will be able to contribute, but we are quite open.
