Young Black journalists discuss the protests, black voices in news
The Other Side returns, interviewing two young Black journalists on their experiences amid the George Floyd protests. Tanisha Thomas and Gershon Herell, who are interns this summer at The Columbus Dispatch, describe their experiences studying journalism in college, and what schools can do to be more inclusive to students of color. They also speak candidly about what it was like covering the protests and how they were personally affected. And they also take a hard look at what The Dispatch can do to increase diversity in its own newsroom. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
