i've given a bit of a flavor but how would you describe rotary magazine to someone who's who's never seen it
Björn LangeGUEST

Björn LangeGUEST
Whenever human rights are affected, we say Rotary can't back down, but should get involved and raise its voice.
Björn LangeGUEST
And if we want to be a voice and be considered in the society, we have to take a stand.
Björn LangeGUEST
And it is almost 100 years ago that our first editor-in-chief of my magazine, it was Karl Wolfskehl.
Björn LangeGUEST
A Jewish intellectual guy like Thomas Mann and these two guys ran our first magazine, the Rotary magazine, called at these times the Rotarian.
