The New Press amplifies progressive voices for a more inclusive, just, and equitable world. As a nonprofit public-interest publisher, we leverage books, diverse voices, and media engagement to facilitate social change, enrich public discourse, and defend democratic values:
- A diversity of perspectives ensures a more inclusive set of public conversations on issues of equity, racial justice, political access, and representation.
- Our public interest mission allows us to publish ahead of the curve, introduce innovative ideas, create new markets, and shift social narratives for the greater good.
- Our work mainstreams critical perspectives on immigration, racial justice, education, civic engagement, environmental justice, and more.
- The New Press functions in most ways like a typical, savvy independent book publisher. Our staff of industry professionals works closely with authors and agents to frame effective concepts, to develop compelling manuscripts, to produce award-winning books, and to conduct effective national media and outreach campaigns around our books and the issues they promote.
