…The Showbear Family Circus aims to offer art, research, and thought that reshapes the West by injecting moral law into the liberal arts and by humanizing your sector of society through the humanities. Each week, more and more people read, submit to, subscribe to, and donate to The Circus’s independent, rational, and creative work. And unlike every other literary and academic journal, we choose to be accessible to everyone without playing favorites. But we can’t keep it up without your steadfast support.

The independence of our editors, contributors, and researchers will allow us to set the pace, set the tone, and speak boldly on issues: we will NEVER succumb to political or commercial or shareholder-based influence through advertising, hidden or overt. That’ll allow us to commission the art, the research, and the debate we believe the marketplace of ideas most desperately needs.
