About Us/Editorial Team

Conceive Chronicle Change

Conducive publishes news and culture for progressives who want to be engaged and read compassionate, advocacy, critical and solutions-oriented news and culture. It is a magazine devoted to critical thinking about ways to deal with social problems and looking for viable solutions to dilemmas we face on both a local and worldwide scope. Our readers not only want to know the news, they want to know how to do something about it.

We tell stories to affect people and effect change. Journalism spends much energy trying to convince people that the issues are important. But, that is only part of what we think our readers want to hear. Conducive operates under the premise that readers will care more about a problem if they can see something they can do about it.

We publish articles looking at communities in action and exploring solutions to small and big social problems.

Conducive also features articles covering innovative ideas and research accessible to a diverse audience of people interested in social change.

  • Will fossil fuel companies face liability for climate change?
    In a recent article in National Journal, Americans for Prosperity (AFP) President Tim Phillips said there is no question that AFP and others like it have been instrumental in the rise of Republican candidates who question or deny climate science: “We’ve made great headway. What it means for candidates on the Republican side is, if you … […]
  • Beyond Disposable: A Paradigm Shift in Consumer Living
    All day, everyday, we do it without really thinking about it. Pull that coffee filter full of spent grounds out of the machine after your morning cuppa, and toss it into the kitchen trash. Grab a paper towel from the office pantry to serve as a napkin for your lunch break, wipe your mouth and […]
  • Why You Should Care About Land Grabs
    How Do You Grab Land? The recent phenomenon of aggressive land takeovers, also known as land grabs, has resulted in the taking of enormous portions of land throughout Africa. In 2009 alone, nearly 60 million hectares of land was purchased or leased throughout the continent for the production and export of food, cut flowers, and […]
  • Drilling in the Arctic: Perspectives from an Alaska Native
    On October 3, 2011, the Obama administration said it was moving forward with oil-drilling leases off the coast of Alaska issued by the Bush administration in 2008. The leases had been challenged by environmental groups, opposition that gained momentum after the 2010 BP Deepwater Horizon disaster. Yet the Interior Department said it would uphold nearly […]

  • Association of Black Women Historians Blasts ‘The Help’
    Movie Poster for ‘The Help.” Although just released on August 10, “The Help,” a film adapted from Kathryn Stockett’s novel, has already run aground of racism charges by the Association of Black Women Historians (ABWH). In its formal statement to moviegoers, the Association of Black Women Historians (ABWH) admonishes  the film for “widespread stereotyping” of […]
  • Single Mothers a Public Health Problem? Depends on Who is Asking the Question
    “Unwed mothers suffer long-term health woes,” read the headline in the Los Angeles Times on June 2. I felt myself cringe as I took it in, not just because of the significance of this statement, but also because of the use of the term “unwed mother.” After reading the full article, my initial cringe turned […]
  • How the English Empire Accidentally Created the Wedding Industry
    We can thank the British for many things: the colonization of much of the world, not passing on their dentistry or cooking skills, our accents, the postage stamp, Mr. Bean, the pay toilet and gravity, just to name a few. But one thing we have never given them credit for is creating the wedding industry. […]
  • Goodbye Hymen, Hello Hyphen!
    Each generation has their heated issue when it comes to marriage. Once upon a time, it was imperative to maintain the virtue and innocence of a young woman (i.e.: the presence of her hymen) on her wedding night. In present times, the average age of sexually active women is 17. Therefore, contrary to the repressive […]
