Fortunately Magazine is a print and online publication that redefines the norms of lifestyle journalism, exploring the intersections of art, culture, and economic democracy. Published by Boston Ujima Project, Fortunately Magazine emerges as a catalyst for conversations around post-capitalist living, providing a platform for voices that challenge the status quo.
Issue 0: The Pro-Testing Print features profiles and interviews with Field Meridians's LinYee Yuan, SAMSØN Projects’s Camilo Alvarez, radical economist Francisco Perez, Resonate Coop's brandon king, the UnBound Bodies Collective and more.

Narrative work allows us to explore not just our stories, but forms and modes of telling them.
​
Amidst a flurry of poems submitted to one of our digital publications, the Ujima WIRE, a patchwork of words emerged describing how we reckon with frustration, enemies, and regret.
In Words Worth Working Toward, a poetry zine, we share the words we’re working with, working towards, or working against. We aren’t yet where we want to be–this zine largely represents a capsule of tribulations. Yet a glimmer of hope emerges in the end, one path among the many we might take together to get free.

In Bliss, we share our daily rituals so that the simple and quotidian can serve as a radical basis for alignment and joy.

With support from Ujima's Ashe Ashe Cultural Assembly Grant, artist Tomashi Jackson organized a community reading and re-release of her publication, Brown II.
The Brown II Book Club was a 5-month reading group which explored histories of educational advocacy, school desegregation, implications of tech policy and algorithms on civil rights, and much more. Jackson worked directly with Ujima staff to distribute physical copies of the publication around Boston, and offered digital copies for non-local participants.
Tomashi Jackson's Brown II project explores the history and legacy of school desegregation in the United States, with a special focus on Boston through artwork and a series of interviews with leading scholars in the field.
