Progressive Action Update Submission Details


Flyers

Flyers and photos you would like included should be emailed to [email protected]. Please put "Progressive Action Update Submission" or "PAU Submission" and the details in the Subject line of your email (for example, ***Progressive Action Submission*** regarding Earth Day - links and flyers). 

Any flyers you wish to use should be in pdf format. If your flyers include a lot of text please also send them as Word documents so that they can be put on this website with ease.

We no longer allow text heavy flyers to be posted as images in our weekly update. The loss of clarity means we will post those as text.

​

We edit, gently

An Important Note from the Progressive Action Update Editors: The Progressive Action Update has established a reputation as an important means of communication about progressive issues in our communities. As editors, we are responsible for the clarity of all submissions. We reserve the right to edit any submitter's post for typos, grammar and clarity, and to supplement with informational links. These minor changes do not require permission from the submitter. Approval from the submitter is only required if an editor believes that a substantial change would improve the content of the post. When we make corrections, we improve the image of our organization and of the submitter. We all want to be seen in the best light, and our editing accomplishes this.
​

PAU Approval

​All submissions require the approval of PACG president or Board of Directors before being included. If your submission is of a time-sensitive matter, please note that in your submission so it can be reviewed promptly.
​

Copyrights

It is the event submitter's responsibility to be sure that no images, photos or flyers you send us are copyrighted. We support copyright laws and practices. Include links to any text that you have taken from other documents or sources. We will include those in your submission.

Submission links, copyrights, editing, Zoom and more

Please include links to locations, organizations and people about whom you are writing. See below. 

Submitting flyers? Email flyers to [email protected]. 

Using images? Beware of copyrights.

We will gently edit your submission without your permission.


We have made some recent changes as to how we use Zoom for online meetings. Please read this Message from the Progressive Action Update Editors: Blog post about Zoom Security.
​

We might use your post elsewhere.

In addition to your submission being included in the weekly update that comes out on Tuesday, we may choose to use your post on our website and social media accounts.

We try to post events, meetings, statements and action items to this website from the Progressive Action Update in a timely manner. After the update is sent out, please check to be sure your submission is correct, that the links work, and that your write-up looks the way you want it to. Give us a few days to post it on the website and check those same things.
​

Links in your submission

Put the links in your document right into the Progressive Action submission form in their web address format (for example: http://www.pacgqc.org/environmental-forum.html or https://www.davenportnaacp.org/).
