Our Hope and Writing Our Hope

Writing Our Hope was an online project committed to publishing works of creative nonfiction and poetry written by young people on the themes of hope, tolerance, and equality. Until late 2009, the web project was a follow-up to the August 2007 publication of Our Hope: Writings and Photographs on Tolerance and Equality by creative writing students at Booker T. Washington Magnet High School in Montgomery, Alabama.

Writing Our Hope WILL NOT PUBLISH NEW ISSUES IN THE FUTURE.
THE PROJECT HAS BEEN DISCONTINUED
AS OF NOVEMBER 16, 2009.

The Book Release
In August 2007, Our Hope: Writings and Photographs on Tolerance and Equality was released. It was funded by a Teaching Tolerance grant from the Southern Poverty Law Center. We offered one copy of Our Hope to any teacher working in a public or private secondary school or an accredited college or university. This offer has also been discontinued.

The 'Zine
As a follow-up project, and one that carried the spirit of the Our Hope even further out into the community, Writing Our Hope offered high school and college students the opportunity to publish their own writings on the themes of tolerance and equality. Unfortunately, due to a lack of submissions, the project has been discontinued as of November 16, 2009. To read the four issues we published, click on any of the covers below to view a non-printing PDF.
