Are we willing to be curious? Are we willing to have proactive conversation with people in the grocery store and elsewhere? asks @sr_simone sharing her thoughts ar @UChiPolitics Bridging the Divide conference.
I’m at @UChiPolitics’ Bridging the Divide conference and think Silvia Rivera of @macfound made an excellent point about the importance of nurturing information gardens. That’s an different way of thinking about news deserts.
What a pleasure to read @chlawrence op-ed in the @Suntimes. Hope you read it, too.

This is what @wendi_c_thomas of
@MLK50Memphis tells people when they ask why they should talk to her: If you tell your story, I can't promise anything will change. But if you don't tell your story, nothing will change - #INNDays23
To build trust with the Memphis community, @wendi_c_thomas and the team at @MLK50Memphis published: "Don't talk to a journalist until you read this," shared at #INNDays23.

How can we in Chicago collaborate with @prisonjourn @yukarikane? There are lots of potential partners - @AustinTalks @AustinWeeklyChi @Suntimes @chlawrence now @BlockClubCHI and how about @pksmid with @WBEZ?
The Prison Journalism Project trains incarcerated writers to be journalists and publish their stories. It empowers a marginalized community to be a vital voice in criminal legal reform. It’s such a powerful and impactful collaborative. #cjs2023
If you’re inspired by their work, check out @yukarikane @InnovationRJI Fellowship project! She built the Prison Journalism Navigator to help journalists build this work into their coverage #CJS2023 prisonjournalismproject.org/…
