Welcome to Postindustrial!
Postindustrial was conceived following the 2016 election, during which much of America was routinely mischaracterized and misunderstood in the news media.
We are independent storytellers and a multimedia outlet that’s redefining “Postindustrial” on our own terms, not those handed down to us by previous generations.
Our work reflects the history, legacy, and culture of one of the most important regions in America and Postindustrial Communities around the world. We show where those regions are going - in the spirit of reinvention and renewal so emblematic of Postindustrial America.
Our coverage area includes but is not limited to Michigan, Pennsylvania, Ohio, West Virginia, Wisconsin, Illinois, Indiana, Tennessee, Georgia, Alabama, Kentucky, New York, Maryland, and North Carolina. We've also produced reporting from Ukraine, Afghanistan, Ukraine, the Balkans, and many other countries.
About Postindustrial Founder Carmen Gentile ‪@cgentile‬
Carmen is a longtime reporter who has covered Afghanistan, Iraq, and other conflicts for many years in print, photo, and video.
His work has appeared in The New York Times, USA TODAY, Esquire, TIME, and numerous other outlets. Carmen has appeared on CNN, MSNBC, and other channels to discuss both his work as a conflict reporter and Postindustrial.

Before founding Postindustrial in 2018, he published "Blindsided by the Taliban," an account of his unusual injury in Afghanistan.

Martinsburg resident here - sorry, no coal in Martinsburg, or for that matter in the entire Eastern Panhandle of the State. Martinsburg was a railroad and manufacturing town. That huge brick building with the conical roof is the historic railroad roundhouse. It was built after the Civil War to replace the predecessor that was burnt down during the war by Stonewall Jackson when he was retreating from the City. Martinsburg changed hands over 40 times during the Civil war. Both the North and the South wanted it because of the strategic real lines that meet in the city. Sadly, there's not much that's open downtown on Sundays. Better to visit on Friday afternoon or a Saturday.

@@markthompson180 Thanks for writing and teaching us a thing or two. We know someone who lives there and speaks highly of the place. We’ll return soon and do Martinsburg right. Hope to see you there! Thanks again and regards.

@@postindustrialmediallc - I hope you guys will come back through town someday, Martinsburg is a town that's filled with a lot of great people, and a lot of interesting history and architecture. I've lived here for about 12 years (by choice) and during that time I have seen considerable improvement. Despite what many outdated and misinformed people might say otherwise, I think it's one of the most vibrant and progressive cities in West Virginia, and that's why I choose to continue living in this town. Next time you're in town, you should definitely check out the Frog Hollow Trail, which is a new hiker biker trail that runs through the middle of town and connects several interesting historical locations and parks, as well as the train station (which also is a MARC and Amtrak Station). I don't think any other city in West Virginia has anything that compares to it.

We do plan to return. In fact, I’ve entertained the idea of setting up in Martinsburg to both enjoy W and have access to DC so I can hold some lawmakers accountable on Capitol Hill, from time to time.
