MinnPost

MinnPost is an online, independent, nonprofit newsroom that produces thoughtful, in-depth journalism about civic and cultural affairs impacting Minnesota.

MinnPost’s Community Voices section operates like an op-ed page at a newspaper: People submit opinion pieces — some once and never again, and some repeatedly. There is no ongoing commitment. We like to publish a variety of topics, tones, political views, etc.

Here are the submission guidelines for Community Voices: https://www.minnpost.com/community-voices-guidelines/.
