I've seen a few tweets about people pulling their membership from @wamu885 in light of recent events. If you want to support the newsroom, @DCist @1a @GunsReporting @kojoshow staff, we still need your financial support.
We have important journalism to do. We have bills to pay. And we all know when things hit the fan - across industries and orgs - who is the first to go. It will be women, people of color, young folks. Those of us least likely to have a safety net.
We need y'all now more than ever - and not just financially. Hold us accountable. Hold our leadership accountable. There's important work to be done, and we need a healthy environment to do it.
My colleagues at 1A and Pod Shop are some of the best people I know. They are kind and supportive and smart and creative. They have shown me that you can simultaneously be a good journalist and a good person.
I really try to keep my head down. I am a Black woman. I always feel vulnerable, no matter how many people assure me that I am not. I know that no matter where I work or what I do I am vulnerable. But I'm also very tired. I want to be able to do my job and do it well.
