Brian Dominick is an organizer and journalist who did most of his activist work based in Syracuse, NY, where he was born in 1973. Brian now lives in Brooklyn, New York.
Brian was a co-founder with Jessica Azulay of The NewStandard, a hard-news publication that operated from 2004-2007.

Z is a place to think beyond the limits of the present.
For decades, Z has brought together political analysis, movement reporting, debate, and visions of a different future from writers and activists around the world. That work is more than journalism. It is movement infrastructure: movements need places to develop ideas, test arguments, learn from experience, and imagine what comes next.
In the first two days of this fundraiser, 19 donors and 8 new monthly sustainers stepped up. Help us reach 1,000 donors who keep Z independent, for everyone.
For decades, Z has published the analysis, debate, and visions movements need, free of paywalls, ads, and billionaire owners. If that work should continue, Z needs your support now.
