This town hall will engage thought leaders and Asian media journalists in a reflection on the history of Asian and AAPI-serving media in the U.S.\, and a dialogue on the future of community media in the age of social media. \nFollowing welcoming remarks by Newmark J-School dean Graciela Mochkofsky\, newly appointed Asian Media Initiative director Kavitha Rajagopalan will introduce the initiative. Rajagopalan will then moderate a panel discussion on the history of legacy Asian community media and digital storytelling\, featuring CCM communications director and longtime community media advocate Jehangir Khattak\, and digital storytelling pioneer Dr. Shirley Suet-ling Tang (鄧雪齡). \nThe following Asian media journalists will share insights to kick off a town hall conversation between journalists\, publishers\, and stakeholders in AAPI-serving community media. \n\n\nRong Xiaoqing (榮筱箐)\, Sing Tao Daily  \n\n\nKishor Panthi\, Khasokhas and NepYork \n\n\nIndah Nuritasari\, Indonesian Lantern \n\n\nGiannina Ong\, Mochi Magazine \n\n\nPanelists: \nJehangir Khattak is Communications Director at the Center for Community Media at the Craig Newmark Graduate School of Journalism.

SUMMARY:Asian Women Report: Covering the Hate Crimes Crisis in Asian Community Media

SUMMARY:Black Media: Makers and Keepers of History
DESCRIPTION:Speakers:\nNehemiah Frank\, The Black Wall Street Times\nCash Michaels\, The Wilmington Journal\nMiya Williams Fayne\, PhD\, California State University Fullerton\nVenneikia Williams\, Free Press \nLast year\, the Black Media Initiative commissioned a comparative content analysis of the Black press and U.S. mainstream media. We found that Black media connects present events to the historical record\, keeping track of Black experience. The word “history” itself is uniquely prevalent in Black media across a diversity of topics when compared to mainstream media. What role does history play in the present and future of the Black press and its coverage? \nJoin us for a public conversation where we’ll highlight the ways Black media uniquely integrates history into coverage\, the harm that has been done historically against Black media\, and the ways that individuals and organizations can be a part of the solution of reparative justice. \nREGISTER HERE. \nIn this conversation\, hear from Black publishers and media leaders about: \n– The importance of history in Black media\n– The historical and present harms perpetrated against Black media\n– What reparations for Black media might look like \nIf you have any questions\, contact Cheryl at\ncheryl.thompson-morton@journalism.cuny.edu \nREGISTER HERE. \n——————- \nThe Black Media Initiative (https://bit.ly/ccm-bmi) is a national capacity building initiative for Black owned and controlled media. Its aim is to support Black media by providing research\, training and connections. We are a part of the Center for Community Media which is housed at the Craig Newmark Graduate School of Journalism at CUNY.

SUMMARY:Asian Media Respond to Hate Crimes
DESCRIPTION:On Friday\, March 26\, join us for a town hall discussion centering on the perspectives and expertise of publishers and journalists in Asian media\, serving diverse Asian American audiences across the country. The event is sponsored by the Center for Community Media at the Newmark Graduate School of Journalism. \nREGISTER HERE \nThe brutal attacks in Atlanta were the latest in an escalating crisis of racist anti-Asian violence toward the many and diverse Asian American communities across the U.S. At the same time\, Asian Americans have faced disproportionate infection and death from COVID-19\, manning the front lines as healthcare and other essential service workers\, and have seen tremendous economic hardship with the loss of community-owned businesses since the beginning of the pandemic. \nCommunity-based media for and by Asian Americans have served their communities throughout these devastating\, converging crises. They have kept their communities informed about how to stay safe\, and they have told their stories with nuance and depth even as these communities remain under-represented in the wider U.S. media landscape. \nConfirmed participants include: \nChristina Oriel\, Asian Journal\nJudy Kim\, WIN-TV\nJoe Wei\, World Journal\nNoel Pangilinan\, Asian American Writers’ Workshop\nJinxia Niu\, Justice Patch\nSeungjae Seo\, freelancer \nIf you have any questions\, contact ccm@journalism.cuny.edu.

SUMMARY:Polarization Conversation Series: Publishers Serving Communities with Historic Trauma
DESCRIPTION:Panelists:\nCierra Brown Hinton\, Publisher\, Scalawag Magazine (@iolabhinton)\nDeborah Kolben\, Editorial Director\, 70 Faces Media (@dkolben)\nMaritza Félix\, Publisher\, Conecta Arizona (@maritzalfelix) \nModerator:\nKavitha Rajagopalan\, Community Engagement Manager\, CCM (@kxraja) \nREGISTER \nThere is no doubt that political polarization is threatening both U.S. democracy and the practice of journalism. Yet\, for too long\, polarization has been presented in simplistic binaries – rural vs. urban\, left vs. right – that elide its complex drivers and manifestations. \nThis conversation\, the first of three this February\, will take place between three publishers serving communities with historic trauma from white nationalist violence and terrorism – Black communities in the South\, diverse Jewish American communities\, and undocumented Latinx communities on the U.S.-Mexico border. How have they covered U.S. politics\, ascendant white nationalism\, and legislative threats to their communities’ safety and rights? How have they supported news audiences and staff coping with trauma? How is political polarization affecting and shaping their communities? How are they using their outlets to help their readers build community – and power? \nREGISTER \nIf you have any questions\, contact ccm@journalism.cuny.edu. \nAbout the series:\nThe CCM Polarization Conversation Series centers both the perspectives and the expertise of publishers who serve communities that have been navigating political polarization\, white nationalism\, and right-wing extremism for many decades. These conversations are a first step toward shifting the way polarization is understood and defined\, and elevating the knowledge and insight of publishers serving communities most impacted by the polarization crisis.
