I'm on the mailing list for the Jonestown Institute at SDSU (because I sent them an email inquiring about copyright things), and I got an email last week saying that the jonestown report is back. EEEEEE!!!!

the jonestown report is a yearly journal that is published every November, filled with articles about new Jonestown research, the latest news stories that mention Jonestown/Peoples Temple, remembrances for survivors or others connected to the story that have died over the past year, discussion about art related to Jonestown, a list of people who you can contact for interviews, new commentaries, etc.

About two years ago, the editors of the jonestown report stated that they were shutting it down, stating that they believed their job was done and that it was time to let it go. By that point, it had also become a place for survivors to reconnect with others, for people to learn new perspectives, and to finally get a memorial at the mass grave at Evergreen. With the completion of the Jonestown Memorial, the editors thought that the peak of interest had passed. They weren't going to stop accepting articles; rather, their plan was to scale down the publication as the jtr bulletin, under the belief that focus on Peoples Temple was dying down.

Well, that didn't happen. Interest is still strong, and new research continues to come out, and so it's been revived.

Technically, a number of articles are reprints of articles published elsewhere, while others are new. But the important part is that these articles are available for the layperson for free.

... I spent my Veterans Day holiday reading all of the articles I could, why do you ask?
