El Tribuno del Pueblo is one year away from turning 50 years old. The once printed issues are part of the archives and now digital versions are available since 2006 on our website. Since COVID19 we have transitioned away from the print version and now only available digitally. Adding a printed version once again is an ongoing discussion which will take more financial support. The technological changes in our society have forced changes throughout the entire world. Since we were not exempted from these changes, members of the editorial board have had to learn many new and creative ways of contributing to its continuance.

El Tribuno del Pueblo has become a trusted national, bilingual publication and has helped to facilitate, along with the People’s Tribune, virtual panel discussions (Zooming to the Border for Human Rights) to bring up to date information on the issues of immigration, especially at the U.S./Mexico border from the experts and revolutionaries that are facing the brunt of violence and fascist laws. The movement leaders and activists have used our publication as a grassroots-organizing tool. The stories and lessons come from within the movement for the movement.

Our slogan has been “No Human Being is Illegal” and we have reported on the violations of human rights. El Tribuno uplifts and takes the side of truth and unity with the people who are seeking a future and escaping violence. We continue to be challenged with poverty, homelessness, and attacks on our democracy, climate change and so much more. We encourage all, especially our youth to tell their story from their perspective in their own words. Quality public education is under assault and people are organizing and mobilizing to defend what we all deserve.
