Promote Your Cause

The Contact–TANAVATA–Origins branch exists so that lines of communication can remain open without dissolving into noise. Under the heading of Promote Your Cause, you will find a structured way to reach out, whether you are sharing information, asking for guidance, proposing collaboration, or simply letting us know how this work is landing where you are. The aim is to welcome genuine contact while honouring the limits of time and attention.

As you read, you will see what kinds of messages are most appropriate for this channel, and where other questions might be better directed—to community spaces, to bookings, or to public comment on specific articles. Clarity about purpose helps ensure that important signals are not lost in a sea of unfocused requests. It also allows you to decide whether this is the right moment, and the right form, for what you wish to say.

Within Promote Your Cause, you are invited to speak plainly, respectfully, and with as much context as you are able to provide. Whether you are a reader, a journalist, a potential ally, or someone directly affected by the issues we cover, your perspective has the potential to deepen and refine the work. At the same time, boundaries are necessary to prevent extraction, abuse, or burnout, and those boundaries will be named here as clearly as possible.

If you choose to make use of this channel, know that your message will be read by real people who are doing their best to hold many threads at once. You may not receive an immediate response, but your effort to reach out is not taken lightly. Promote Your Cause exists as an invitation to participate in the story with care and precision, rather than as a generic inbox for every passing thought.

You may wish to read first: public statements, explanatory articles, and key updates that may address some of your questions before you write.
