Collectively, we pursue a more liberated South.

Through journalism and storytelling, Scalawag works in solidarity with oppressed communities in the South to disrupt and shift the narratives that keep power and wealth in the hands of the few. Our values:
- Liberation rooted in self-determination and solidarity.
- Radical imagination and creativity.
- Moving with care and curiosity.
- Abundance in community. Our theory of change:
- Right relation

: We are in a generative, reciprocal relationship with community, organizers, and movements.
- Community-driven reporting: Our reporting and storytelling are informed and driven by the needs of our community including our partners. Our community trusts us to share their stories and as a source of information because of the relationships we've built with them.
- Outcomes: Storytelling or reporting leads to policy changes, support to movement work, narrative shift, increased solidarity and connection, the nourishing of radical imagination, and the creation of pathways to careers in journalism, literature, and the arts for people who have not traditionally had access.
- Impact: Repeated outcomes from Scalawag and other reporting media makers in conjunction with the work of movements leads to transformational change.

"On this day, a Virgo Queen was born! Marsha P. Johnson’s courage and determination sparked a movement and inspired so many. And it was in her honor that the Marsha P. Johnson Institute was formed. And we are out there every day working to change the conditions for Black trans people because Marsha’s work is not done."

"Civil rights activist Medgar W. Evers was born in 1925 in Decatur, Mississippi.

In 1954, he became the NAACP’s first field secretary in the state. His main duties were recruiting new members and investigating incidents of racial violence. He also led voter registration drives and mass protests, organized boycotts, fought segregation, and helped James Meredith integrate the University of Mississippi. Evers was key in collecting witnesses and evidence in the Emmett Till murder case, bringing it to the attention of the nation. In 1963, he was assassinated in his driveway by white supremacist Byron De La Beckwith. In 1994, during a 3rd trial, De La Beckwith was convicted of killing Evers and was sentenced to life imprisonment for the murder of Evers.
