Reader’s Opinions
At the time when life is on hold because the pandemic, seeing a new local magazine with quality and interesting contents coming to our homes is refreshing.
While online news could be confusing and contradictory, Redux Extra is providing us information with clarity from cultural and artistic events to local businesses activities. In this way, the magazine is not only supporting local events and businesses, but also is boosting our moral about livelihood of our region in this pandemic era.
Zoe Rastegar has been always active in the art and cultural scene of Washington, DC area. For many years, she provided a forum for the Iranian American generation through her media production “Accent”, introducing activists, artists, entrepreneurs and those, who made a difference in our diverse community.
I wish her and the Redux Extra team the best of success.

Dear Editor,
I enjoyed reading the Holiday issue of Redux Extra Community magazine tremendously. I am quite impressed with the quality and appearance of the magazine as well as the content.
I liked the editor’s letter to the readers and other contributors. They all seem to be quite seasoned and informed. In addition, I was impressed with low volume of advertisements and enlightened by the principles that the magazine stands by. I wish you continued success.

It’s great to have a new magazine in oumidst.
Creative articles with an eye towards the future is certainly an asset to our community.

Enjoyed the Holiday issue. Washingtonian magazine could take a page out of your
Contents page: nice intro! There’s a number of articles that have no byline, but kudos
to, the writers. I loved the Military Kids article. The “Power of Lipstick” reviewed the
history of lipstick then brought us to COVID-19 and its impact on women’s daily
routines and the cosmetics industry. Hopefully, it won’t last.

My sincerest congratulations on your excellent publication.
Redux Extra addresses a neglected void in the Washington metro area which you are filling admirably.
It is elegant both in its presentation and content and covers a variety of topics that are not only interesting
and helpful to your readers but also culturally inspiring.
I thoroughly enjoyed reading the first two issues and am looking forward to the next one.
My best wishes for your continued success in your endeavors.

I only learned of Redux Extra magazine last Fall when my friend Zoe Rastegar told me about it. When I saw the Winter 2020 issue, I was delighted! The “look” of the magazine is sleek and elegant. The content is well-written and uplifting to the spirit, with stories about people from our own communities who are doing great things.
These regional publications are how we celebrate our communities and they are essential to the weave of our lives. Unfortunately, we have lost so many of these voices during the last four years. And yet,….here is Redux Extra! It is an incredibly generous labor of love that the staff of Redux has undertaken. Bravo!!!
May you have all the resources you need to keep up the great work!
