Email Lists

SAJA runs several mailing lists that are open to the public. They are all e-mail based. We do not do snail mail.

The Lists are run by SAJA co-founder Sreenath Sreenivasan and several others, depending on the topic.

You DO NOT have to be South Asian or a journalist or live in North America to participate (except as indicated). We encourage you to be a paid member of SAJA (the lowest dues of any major journalism org), but for all lists except one, you do not need to be a paid member to participate. You can sign up here.

To join a list, fill in the following form, make your selection(s), and then click "Submit."

Learn about SAJA events in New York and other chapter cities. Learn about plans for the annual SAJA Convention. Open to journalists and non-journalists worldwide. (No more than two messages a month.)

Join 300 journalists and others in 25 countries discussing issues of interest to them. Mostly items about the U.S. & Canadian media, South Asia and the South Asian diaspora. Open to journalists and non-journalists worldwide. (Average of 50 messages a day.) MODERATOR: John Laxmi

Instead of receiving all the discussions of list #2, you receive just the most important and topical news items in the US media about South Asia and South Asian America. An excellent way to keep in touch with goings-on in South Asia and the diaspora. Open to journalists and non-journalists worldwide. (Average of three messages a day.)

A filtered version of list #3. You get only articles that are, in the moderator's subjective opinion, especially worth reading. Open to journalists and non-journalists worldwide. A subset of #2 and #3. (Average of three messages a week--instead of three a day.) MODERATOR: Sreenath Sreenivasan

A continuously updated list of jobs across all media, mainly in the US, but overseas as well. You MUST be a paid member of SAJA to sign up for this. Details at http://www.saja.org/membership - do not sign up until you have paid your dues.

A discussion list for graduate, college and high school students in the U.S. and Canada ONLY who are interested in journalism and the media. You do NOT need to be a journalism major, but you must show interest. (Average of three messages a week.) MODERATOR: Sudeep Reddy

A discussion list for broadcast journalists working in the U.S. and Canada ONLY. (Average of one message a week.) MODERATOR: Kiran Khalid

For photojournalists working in the U.S. and Canada ONLY. MODERATOR: SAJAer and photojournalist Seshu Badrinath.
