Walking the line: Reporting on protests and police
The Bay Area Black Journalists Association hosted a conversation about how professional and citizen journalists as well as community members can responsibly report on the historic demonstrations happening across the country. "What [under-cover reporters at the #BlackLivesMatter protests] came back and said – what I think we were most disappointed with – was that the protests they were seeing were not then reflected in the stories that came out the next day... The narrative becomes the broken window and the flaming dumpster."
