The Asian American Writers' Workshop is looking to hire a part-time editor to take over OPEN CITY! Open City is our online magazine that seeks to tell the stories of low-income Asian American immigrant communities in New York. 

We're looking for someone really energetic, entrepreneurial and willing to get their hands dirty! The ideal applicant is committed to the mission of the publication, excited about managing and mentoring emerging writers of color, and ready to publish excellent nonfiction content. 
Over the last few years, Open City has tackled topics ranging from stop-and-frisk, Sikh temples in Queens, the underground Chinatown Yu-Gi-Oh! trading card community, the eviction of tenants on 81 Bowery, the Queens hip hop scene, the welfare-to-workfare system, domestic violence in the Afghan community, participatory budgeting in Queens, the last movie theater in Chinatown, Hurricane Sandy's effect on communities of color, and more. You can check out the current site at http://www.opencitymag.com. 

Our stories have been picked up by the New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, Associated Press, NPR, WNYC, Gothamist, Huffington Post, WAMC’s 51%, The Atlantic, Slate, and other outlets. (We've also won an Ippie!) Our current editor is exploring opportunities that grew out of a Nieman Fellowship at Harvard. Please forward this to anyone you think might be interested!
