About This Market
Native Peoples is a high quality, bimonthly magazine of nonfiction feature articles and departments. The magazine seeks stories reflecting Native life throughout the Americas, from the Arctic Circle to the southern tip of Chile, though our prime focus is on subjects in the United States.
Native Peoples strives to offer a sensitive portrayal of the arts and lifeways of the Native peoples of the Americas. We seek writers and photographers--Native and non-Native--who have a unique expertise about their subject. If you are Native, please let us know. Competition is stiff: The magazine receives numerous unsolicited manuscripts and hundreds of queries a year.
The only departments open to freelancers are our travel section “Pathways” (700-1500 words), opinion section “Viewpoint” (800 words), and History department (1000-1800 words).
All stories need to be illustrated with high quality photography. Writers are asked to suggest, or work with, professional photographers.
To have a story considered for publication, please submit 1-3 paragraphs describing your proposed subject. You can propose up to five different ideas. A biography or resume, and writing sample(s) are encouraged. We try to respond to queries within 30 days.
