Stack Magazines

"Trump was like a bomb going off..." Good Trouble is the great big newsprint magazine we delivered to Stack subscribers this month, published out of New York and providing a meeting place for arts, culture, protest and activism. In this conversation editor Rod Stanley tells the story of how Donald Trump's election in November 2016 spurred him into action and set him on the path to creating this impassioned piece of print alongside designer Richard Turley. As well as his reasons for starting Good Trouble in the first place, he speaks about the design of the magazine ("It treads the line between technical detail and chaos") and the virtues of publishing as an independent ("I don't think you get that direct connection from mass media").
