Sharing this 📹 video featuring one of my amazing publishers @drolarkb. She and her father Calvin W. Rolark worked to create positive change with the @WashInformer. #inspirational #motivation #LocalNews youtube.com/watch?v=kY3Ro7…
The @Meta layoffs will be particularly hard for publishers of color. @localmediarocks explains Meta made sure that 50% of their programs were allocated to BIPOC publishers. @defendernetwork @SacObserver @NYAmNews made great digital wins in these labs niemanlab.org/2022/11/metas-…
We had an amazing behind-the-scenes look at the @AFRO archives. Thanks, @FrancesToniD for the tour, and look at your 130-year history!

100% agreed with @ramsammy! @janislware & @JAWS_215 from @theatlantavoice. Knocked it out of the park with their session today during the launch of our second cohort.
Can’t think of a better way to launch cohort 2 of the @LocalMediaAssoc @TheBloomLab with @janislware & @JAWS_215 speaking to our next lab participants in the home city of @theatlantavoice. So thankful to be in the midst of history being made. Thanks @knightfdn for their support!
