Revolutions Take Time
An update from the humans behind superego.
After a two-month hiatus from publishing, superego is back. Since launching in June, we have been working backstage to align ourselves with our vision and to make sure that our published content is true to our mission. Both the media industry, as well as the non-profit landscape, are constantly changing and with that, superego is ever-evolving. We decided to pause our publishing to re-engage and understand the nonprofit space to maximize our impact as the premiere digital publication for young people. Our team has been intentionally crafting our brand to make sure that we are practicing what we preach. Aristotle once said that revolutions are linked to the desire for equality and honor, and formulating our brand to provide the best for our audience is our way of following Aristotle’s footsteps.
Revolutions take time. Since superego’s June launch, our team has worked to build our movement of young storytellers from the ground up. This summer, we achieved great success in showing the world something they have not seen before: young people taking charge of our own narratives. Young perspectives hold the potential to change the world as we know it. To do that, they need a platform; a space to launch their movements, ideas, and narratives into the mainstream. superego is that platform.
As superego is growing, evolving, and learning, we continue to uphold our core values and foundational identity. superego strives to highlight the accomplishments and responsibilities of young leaders and changemakers. To do that, we are harnessing the power of creative storytelling to engage young people in the social phenomena implicating our existence on Earth. superego is on a mission to inspire young people to engage in today’s most pressing conversations and spark positive change. Our driving force is to amplify voices that may not be central in the most important topics of today — like climate change, social justice, and human rights — and to support their stories through our publication platform. Our team intentionally crafted the superego manifesto from the beginning of our story, and we’re confident that our upcoming published pieces and non-profit goals will continue to uphold this founding document.
