Generations after trailblazing activist-journalist-publisher Ida B. Wells challenged white supremacy, misogynoir, and respectability politics in American publishing, Black women writers and publishers are severely underrepresented in print and broadcast journalism. Our February 23rd forum will connect Gen Z Black writers and journalists with Black women mentors who are centering Black women’s voices and stories in local, national, and international journalism. Featuring Angela Birdsong, Abene Clayton and Slauson Girl at King-Drew Magnet HS.
