Convergence Magazine Convergence is a magazine for radical insights. Our goal is to create the shared strategy needed to change our society and the world.

We work with organizers and activists on the frontlines of today's most pressing struggles to produce articles, videos and podcasts that sharpen our collective practice, lift up stories from the grassroots, and promote strategic debate. Our community of readers, viewers, and content producers are united in our purpose: winning multi-racial democracy and a radically democratic economy.

As a third space for many, we’re open today! And if you’re wanting to support the general strike, pay in cash
If you go to a protest today, stay warm, be safe, bring your sign here and you can visit the dog side for free

SLIDE 5: JANUARY 30, 2026
EAST VILLAGE, NYC
Hi readers! It’s me,
Beaker.
I’m the new guy here at
Convergence, and I work really hard to keep my human regulated so they can publish these articles you read.
I can’t read, so I’m not the best editor-but I barked at the chance to contribute in my own way.
On this day of the National Shutdown, be in community with dogs and humans, in a warm third space.
Today, bring your protest signs to my favorite dog-friendly cafe for free entry to the dog side!
CONVERGENCE
Boris& Horton
195 Ave A (SW corner of E 12th St)
East Village, New York City
(If you do need to feed yourself or drink a hot beverage, the cafe is open and you can pay cash.)
