An atlas gives you the lay of the land in a particular area, and helps you find things you are looking for. That is what the ForwardKY Atlas is for.
Forward Kentucky is more than “just a blog,” or even a website. We are a media outlet, which means we have multiple places we share content. Here’s the current list. And remember: some content is only on that platform, so if you use that platform regularly, be sure to follow us there.
Social Media
● Facebook – All article excerpts are posted here with links back to the original.
● Twitter – We are pretty active on Twitter, reposting, commenting, and responding to comments. In addition, all article excerpts are posted here with links back.
● LinkedIn – Some article excerpts are posted here, with links back.
● YouTube – Video version of podcasts, as well as occasional other videos.
● (New) Post.news – Joined at the end of 2022, as an alternative to Twitter. Becoming more active as we get used to the platform. Our newsletter The Daily Take is posted here, but requires a point donation to read it.
● (New) Mastodon – Also joined at the end of 2022, as an alternative to Twitter. Trying to get acclimated to the platform.
