Next Monday: Talking to @spamfriedrice about her new book, "Asian American Is Not A Color," at @SeminaryCoop, one of my fav bookstores in Chicago. So much to discuss. Join us! RSVP here: bit.ly/3UkYXMp
@Suntimes @myersjustinc Congratulations to other Chicago Public Media colleagues who also placed in the top 3 in the National Headliners Awards announced today: - @estheryjkang @natalieymoore @SSKedreporter @kschorsch @KateGrossman1 of @WBEZ - @MorrisseyCST of @Suntimes headlinerawards.org
CHICAGO! Come out to my book launch events next week! May 1, 7 p.m. @wcfbook w/@LAPhilip womenandchildrenfirst.com/event/person-a… May 6, 6 p.m. @SeminaryCoop w/@estheryjkang semcoop.com/event/oiyan-po… We'll have book cookies at both events! P.S. #SaveVocalo #SaveWBEZ x.com/WBEZUnion/stat…
🎉 Congrats to the 15 journalists selected for the 2024 Higher Education Media Fellowship! This program champions in-depth reporting on career & technical education: buff.ly/4dbTb8a #HigherEd #CTE #Journalism | @ECMCFoundation
Chicago Public Media laid off 14 staffers — and dramatically cut @WBEZ's podcast unit and @Vocalo, the people who make our most diverse programming. Ask execs and the board to reconsider the cuts, #SaveWBEZ and #SaveVocalo. SIGN THIS PETITION AND SHARE 👇🏾actionnetwork.org/forms/savewbez…
SCOTUS hears opening statements today on a case that could criminalize people who are homeless. Catch up on the case with @estheryjkang story. wbez.org/stories/us-sup…
For years, psychologist Sylvia Perry studied bias awareness among adults — how people come to understand their own prejudices toward different social groups. But how does it develop? So, Perry turned to parents and children. #northwestern #research #race trib.al/P5lcqp0
“We want to make sure that the Supreme Court sees that solution-driven approaches are more effective and that these punitive approaches really don’t do anything to solve homelessness,” Camilla Krauss, CCH Staff Attorney, told @WBEZ. READ: bit.ly/4aLRgVY
Later this month SCOTUS will hear a case that will determine if cities can use local laws to ban homeless people from sleeping outside with a blanket or other bedding. by @estheryjkang wbez.org/stories/us-sup…
Ah yes friends, I was one of the people laid off by WBEZ yesterday. I’ve worked with some insane talent in the last few years and met presidents and movie stars alike. But onto the next adventure! Send any opps my way. And bless @BpopeTV’s heart. THE BEST HOST I COULD ASK FOR!
We are losing many incredible colleagues at WBEZ & our sister station Vocalo. H/t to @pksmid for starting a GoFundMe to help. Please contribute if you can, and spread the word: tinyurl.com/58xbmaaw
Amidst the WBEZ/Vocalo fallout, I want to give 💐 to @HeenaSriv , one of the best producers I’ve ever worked with in any medium. She is creative, inquisitive, and brilliant at narrative. She would be a tremendous asset to any team. Major free agent on the market. HIRE HER! ⭐️
Logging back on here to say that I was one of the people laid off yesterday. I am so proud of the work we did at @NerdettePodcast and we hope to find it a new home. In the meantime, I'm a soup to nuts producer looking for new opportunities
I and my @NerdettePodcast colleagues are among the people laid off yesterday. there’s a lot to figure out, but we will still be making the show for a bit yet. thank you to the hundreds of people who have reached out with their support. your kind words are such a comfort.
A joint effort by @Suntimes' Andy Grimm and @natalieymoore of @WBEZ, about a topic that could directly impact a lot of women here and across the country chicago.suntimes.com/the-watchdogs/…
It’s been a great run, but in due time watch me fly 💪🏾. S/o to everyone who has texted, DM’d, and or mentioned me. I’ll be announcing my last show date on @Vocalo soon 🫶🏾
Anyone need a podcast host? I’m available 🚨 I know some outstanding producers for hire too!
