Media Justice in the Newsroom

Since the inception of American journalism, newspapers and other media have reflected the same white supremacist culture that exists in society. Often, they have even fueled it. Addressing this ugly history and calling for media justice and reparations, Collette Watson, of Media2070 writes in YES! Magazine that, “Media reparations means redistributing power and resources to realize a future in which Black people control their own stories and narratives from ideation through production and distribution.”

 

Rising Up with Sonali is a radio and television show that brings progressive news coverage rooted in gender and racial justice to a wide audience. Rising Up With Sonali was built on the foundation of Sonali Kolhatkar's earlier show, Uprising, which became the longest-running drive-time radio show on KPFK in Los Angeles hosted by a woman. RUS airs on Free Speech TV every weekday.
