Pitching Noema
A Workshop
February 23rd, 2022, 8-9:00 pm ET
In this event designed for philosophers aspiring to be public philosophers, participants heard from editors of a leading philosophical magazine about how to craft and hone a pitch. Attendees at this workshop learned how to get public philosophy pieces published with an extra opportunity, for those interested! The Vice President, Nils Gilman, and Executive Editor, Kathleen Miles of Noema Magazine heard and gave feedback on magazine pitches.
Noema Magazine began as the Worldpost, published first at the Huffington Post and then with the Washington Post. It is published by Nicolas Berggruen and the Berggruen Institute in Los Angeles. They publish essays, interviews, reportage, videos and art on the overlapping realms of philosophy, governance, geopolitics, economics, technology and culture.
Nils Gilman and Kathleen Miles screened and discussed a handful of pitches during the event. Nils and Kathleen selected a representative few from all submissions for discussion.
