Nation19 is a magazine that blends hip-hop culture, photojournalism, activism, and anthropology. The printed and digital magazine[1] [2] is produced and published by multimedia activists, visual anthropologists, and film directors Queen Muhammad Ali and Hakeem Khaaliq.[3] The magazine was started in the winter of 2010.[4] Nation19 also produces documentary films[5] [6] and hosts exhibits based on various of its articles. Nation19 is defined by its large photo spreads and motifs of indigenous empowerment, archeological research, and social change.
Investigative journalism is a regular element of the magazine. A controversial interview with deceased CIA whistleblower and activist Michael Ruppert was published in the "Survival Edition" shortly after his death.[7] The piece focused on the Fukushima nuclear disaster and other issues related to the Pacific Ocean.[8]
