Article Submission & Contact
If you would like to submit an article in the topical areas we cover for publication on the Defend Democracy Press website please send the text accompanied by a brief biography and high resolution picture of yourself to info@defenddemocracy.press.
We only consider articles that are offered to us first and have not been published elsewhere. Furthermore, we also reserve the right to make editorial changes before publication. As the amount of submitted articles has increased significantly, we can no longer reply to everybody submitting article suggestions. If we decide to publish your text we will be in touch.
