Chicago Humanities Festival | Community Journalism @ChicagoHumanitiesFestival | Uploaded June 2021 | Updated October 2024, 1 day ago.
The importance of community-based journalism has become increasingly apparent following this past year of pandemic restrictions, which came at a time of already diminished resources for local news coverage. Join CHF for a conversation featuring journalists covering their own communities. Representing a range of models for local reporting, they will discuss the unique roles journalists can play in sharing their neighbors’s stories and serving communal needs. Together, they offer a portrait of the challenges and opportunities for more inclusive and democratic reporting in our current moment.
This program is presented in partnership with PEN America.
