about us

the name

Concrete refers to something tangible.  Something that can be seen, felt, heard.  People sometimes pay lip service to ideas of justice and equity, claiming an interest in the plights of others, while in reality, insulating themselves when real concern requires change.  Concrete Magazine wants to see palpable acts of justice, real and lasting changes in systems, attitudes, and personal interactions.  read more 

Concrete Magazine aims
to promote thought and action that results from
an understanding of the 
inseparability of 
justice and compassion.
 

the vision

At Concrete Magazine, we view ourselves as advocates of a more equitable society.  Our aim includes educating our readers and encouraging their efforts to create lasting, systemic change, as well as gently challenging readers who have not yet awakened to their responsibility for the needs within San Diego County. read more

the foundation
