Welcome to The Back Loop!

The Back Loop is a curated blog and an occasional newsletter sharing a wide range of practical and thought-provoking resources gleaned from all corners of the media wilderness.

On this site we publish articles, interviews, and video content from many of today’s greatest thinkers, collaborators, and do-ers.

This site is a free, non-profit effort highlighting the work of others. Please support the original content creators whenever possible.

Our hope is that by aggregating and sharing insightful and instructive ways of inhabiting these troubled times our subscribers will feel better informed and equipped to navigate the rough roads ahead.

This is a project from the Rural Futures Lab — a non-profit research and community development collaborative exploring locally adaptive responses to the multiple challenges of contemporary rural life.
