Announcing: Indy Kids

Indy Kids is a new free newspaper that aims to educate children on current news and world events from a progressive perspective and to inspire in children a passion for social justice and learning. It is geared toward kids in grades 4 to 6 in New York City. Indy Kids is produced with the support of Indymedia New York City and individual donations.
The first issue includes a profile of an 11 year-old Iraqi girl, stories from Hurricane Katrina, news about efforts to lower the voting age and the New York police bag searches, and features on bacteria and penguins.
