SUMMARY:Covering Police Killings: A Mother’s Fight for Justice
DESCRIPTION:Mona Hardin has been fighting for justice for her son\, Ronald Greene\, since Louisiana State Police alleged he died in a car accident in 2019. She questioned their story immediately. \nThe reality — that he died after being beaten\, dragged and tased by state troopers — came to light after Carl Cavalier (top image)\, a trooper himself\, told the truth at the cost of his job. Videos of Greene’s beating later emerged\, via The Associated Press. \nIn the wake of the horrific killing of Tyre Nichols at the hands of police in Memphis\, Ms. Hardin and Mr. Cavalier will answer your questions about what it’s like to be in the middle of a police killing and attempted cover-up. \nThey’ll also offer guidance to reporters on what to expect as the Nichols case goes from a widely publicized video to the tougher work of accountability that plays out behind the scenes as much as in court. \nJoin us\, via Zoom\, on Tuesday\, Feb. 28\, from 12:30pm to 1:30pm\, for this session\, to be moderated by Prof. Daryl Khan. \nRSVP Now \nThis important discussion is part of the Tow Criminal Justice Initiative\, a drive to strengthen criminal justice reporting in New York City and around the country.

SUMMARY:Rikers\, an Oral History Panel
DESCRIPTION:New York’s Rikers Island jail is due to be closed in 2027\, but Mayor Adams has yet to provide a clear plan to do so. Meanwhile\, its population is rising\, conditions have worsened\, and a staggering number of people have died there in the past year. What makes Rikers so toxic? What is like to live and work there? \nReporters Graham Rayman (The New York Daily News) and Reuven Blau (The City) provide in-depth answers to those questions in their powerful and often haunting new book\, “Rikers: An Oral History” (Random House\, 2023). \nPlease join the authors for a discussion about Rikers — its painful past and questionable future. Participating in the discussion will be Stanley Richards\, who spent time at Rikers as a prisoner and has since served as First Deputy Commissioner of the NYC Department of Corrections and is currently deputy CEO of The Fortune Society\, and Elizabeth Glazer\, former director of the NYC Mayor’s Office of Criminal Justice and the founder of Vital City\, a journal and policy venture offering actionable strategies to build thriving cities.\n. \nModerating the panel will be Martha King\, former executive director of the NYC Board of Correction and currently Senior Program Officer at the Charles H. Revson Foundation. \nThe panel will take place in Room 308 with a reception to follow in the Café.  \nPlease RSVP

SUMMARY:I Wish We'd Known That: Leading Journalists Look Back at the Russian Story
DESCRIPTION:RSVP Now \nThe invasion of Ukraine seems to have finally eviscerated Russia’s post-Soviet hopes for democracy\, human rights\, and reconciliation with the past. Through this period – and especially the 23 years of Vladimir Putin’s rule – independent journalism strove in the absence of free institutions of state and alongside government-aligned media to bear attentive and accurate witness to Russia’s transformation. That has largely ended with Putin’s shuttering of independent media outlets\, their offices disbanded\, and journalists forced into exile. If their work is not saved\, the record it represents might be erased forever. \nThe Russian Independent Media Archive\, a new project undertaken by PEN America with the Gagarin Center at Bard College and made in collaboration with Internet Archive’s Wayback Machine\, is preserving the archives of these outlets as vital resources for making sense of Russia’s past and its future. The project’s online platform forms a “digital ark” for securing this irreplaceable journalism\, where possible in collaboration with the outlets’ editors\, and offering access to writers\, researchers\, scholars\, and others seeking to build a historical narrative that stands against propaganda efforts to reinterpret the past. \nAs we unveil this project\, noted journalists who have covered Russia will reflect on their reporting\, drawing on the archive for insights on three questions: What did I not know back then? What has been revealed now? How can it help us in the future? \nPanelists: \n\nMasha Gessen\, staff writer\, The New Yorker; author of “Surviving Autocracy\,” “The Future Is History\,” “The Man Without a Face”\nSusan Glasser\, staff writer\, The New Yorker; author of “Kremlin Rising\, The Man Who Ran Washington” and most recently “The Divider\,” which she co-wrote with her husband Peter Baker\nBeth Knobel\, associate professor of Communication and Media Studies at Fordham University\nAnna Nemzer\, TV presenter at the major independent Russian TV channel “Dozhd”\nDavid Remnick\, editor of The New Yorker; author of six books\, including “Lenin’s Tomb: The Last Days of the Soviet Empire”\n\nJoin us for a 5:00 p.m. – 6:15 p.m. panel in the newsroom followed by a reception from 6:15 p.m. – 7 p.m. Please RSVP. \n\nSponsors: The Craig Newmark Graduate School of Journalism\, PEN America\, and the Russian Independent Media Archive (RIMA)\, a joint initiative of PEN America and Bard College\, and made in collaboration with Internet Archive’s Wayback Machine.

SUMMARY:SYMPOSIUM: Covering Hate Crimes in Black\, Asian\, Jewish\, and LGBTQ Media

SUMMARY:"Big Fight in Little Chinatown" Screening and Discussion
DESCRIPTION:Join us in room 308 for the screening of the documentary\, Big Fight in Little Chinatown. The screening will be followed by a Q&A from the film’s director. \nBig Fight in Little Chinatown is a story of community resistance and resilience. Set against the backdrop of the COVID pandemic and an unprecedented rise in anti-Asian racism\, the documentary takes us into the lives of residents\, businesses and community organizers whose neighborhoods are facing active erasure. \nCoast to Coast the film follows Chinatown communities resisting the pressures around them. From the construction of the world’s largest vertical jail in New York\, Montreal’s fight against developers swallowing up the most historic block of their Chinatown\, big box chains and gentrification forces displacing Toronto’s community\, to a Vancouver Chinatown business holding steadfast\, the film reveals how Chinatown is both a stand-in for other communities who’ve been wiped off the city map\, and the blueprint for inclusive and resilient neighborhoods of the future. \nWhen New York City announced its plans to close Riker’s Island and replace it with a series of borough-based jails located in Brooklyn\, Queens\, The Bronx and Manhattan\, Chinatown was immediately identified for the Manhattan site. And while the community has long been home to the incarcerated and agrees with the need for safe and more humane conditions for detainees\, it has stood firm in objecting to the size and scale of what has been termed the Mega Jail that is planned for Chinatown. If allowed to be built according to current plans\, the Mega Jail will be the tallest jail in the world\, changing NYC’s Chinatown as we know it and creating impacts felt throughout the community economically\, culturally\, and environmentally – some short-term\, some long-term\, some permanent. NYC’s Chinatown is in a fight for its future\, as are many Chinatowns across North America. With demolition of the Manhattan Detention Complex – the site of the planned Mega Jail – fully underway\, a galvanized community with the help of committed elected officials\, is calling for true collaboration and transparency from the City\, including a seat at the table to influence the jail’s design\, size and scale\, and the appointment of an independent monitor to ensure safeguards are followed to protect the health and safety of the community. \nSeating is limited\, so please RSVP if you are able to attend.

SUMMARY:Book Talk – The Gutenberg Parenthesis by Jeff Jarvis
DESCRIPTION:What can we glean from the captivating\, profound\, and challenging history of our devotion to print? Find out in this upcoming book talk at the Craig Newmark Graduate School of Journalism. \nOn October 10\, join Jay Rosen\, associate professor of journalism at New York University\, for a conversation with Newmark J-School Professor Jeff Jarvis\, author of “The Gutenberg Parenthesis: The Age of Print and Its Lessons for the Age of the Internet.” \n“The Gutenberg Parenthesis” traces the epoch of print from its fateful beginnings to our digital present – and draws out lessons for the age to come. The age of print is a grand exception in history. For five centuries it fostered what some call print culture — a worldview shaped by the completeness\, permanence\, and authority of the printed word. As a technology\, print at its birth was as disruptive as the digital migration of today. Now\, as the internet ushers us past print culture\, journalist Jeff Jarvis offers important lessons from the era we leave behind.
