Dig Deeper Into The Story, Get The Broader Perspective
with Linda Villarosa
Learn how to produce the kind of journalism that treats Black, Indigenous, Latinx, people of color, and other marginalized groups as the experts of our own lived experiences. In this Craft Talk, participants will be given tools to dig further into their stories in order to excavate the broader perspective. They will learn how to:
search for the invisibilized, yet critical narratives and details;
widen the scope of inquiry to see the broader themes, reality and consequences;
find experts to comment on a story from legal, social and other perspectives; and,
ask questions and gather facts necessary to craft compelling investigatory reportage that centers the people, places, and issues currently underreported by national media.
