This week, independent journalists unite as we check in with KingDemetrius Pendleton and Louie Tran with Move for Justice News (https://www.m4jn.org/). They discuss the challenges and nuances of covering this movement and the increasing reliance on independent journalists from private security assaults on community to protests on the ground.
Racial Reckoning: The Arc of Justice is a journalism initiative, created by Ampers, KMOJ, and the Minnesota Humanities Center, covering the trials of the former Minneapolis police officers charged with the murder of George Floyd, the community’s response, and the changes needed to create a more just society.
Bearing Witness is produced with support from the Minnesota Art’s and Cultural Heritage Fund.
