About Counterstream

At Counterstream Media we’re on a mission to center the stories and perspectives that mainstream media often miss.

We believe in the power of personal narratives to spark meaningful conversations and shift power from extractors to justice. Through our diverse and expansive media initiatives including the People over Plastic podcast, investigative journalism, and live storytelling events, we uplift voices and share stories that have long been sidelined and overlooked.

Our focus on Environmental Justice spotlights the connections between racial, social, and climate justice.

As the sole multicultural media platform of our kind, we’re proud to bring together community organizers, journalists, activists, and creatives to tell stories that reflect the diversity of human experiences — and we do so in a way that is nuanced, sensitive, and in-depth.

Counterstream Media was previously known as People over Plastic.
