| Abstract |
In Motion. When I had the idea to start this magazine a year ago, I wanted this magazine to be called Dis-Orient. The small staff that I had recruited at that time, not only approved of it but enouraged me to use that name. Luckily another publication had already adopted it so we were forced to come up with something more compelling.I really had no idea what I was doing. I have no journalism background, lacked design and layout experience, no office space and no money. All I had was a direction, lots of energy, and the desire to make changes. We still operate out of my living room, still have no permanent office space, have inconsistent funding, and still a little disorganized. But what we do have is a powerful vision and a few dedicated people losing sleep over every detail. I want to take this opportunity to thank everyone who made Jaded what it is - either indirectly by reading it or directly by dedicating your invaluable hours. |
| Description |
Jaded magazine is a form of alternative media to encourage political, cultural, and personal discourse among UCI students. We celebrate and support the Asian Pacific Islander community through the retelling of the past, engaging of the present, and sharing a vision for the future. We hope to build connections and bridge gaps between people of different ethnicities and ways of thinking. The goal of the publication is not only to provide a space where Asian Pacific Islander students can voice different opinions and artistic expressions, but also as a form of community activism through education and awareness. Despite the fact that we are misrepresented, our images misconstrued, and our cultures misunderstood we are not JADED in spirit. This is what we are doing about it. |
