Report for America's National Gathering is pure magic. This is a tough time to be a journalist, and it's rewarding to create an experience that equips, inspires and energizes local journalists for the work ahead.
.@Report4America brought journalists from every corner of the country to Minneapolis last week for the service program’s 2024 National Gathering.

My parents left everything behind in Cuba for a chance at freedom in the United States. Today, their younger daughter becomes a published author. It is an overwhelming feeling and a life-long dream that has come true.

Thank you, @mkefilm, for another fantastic Milwaukee Film Festival! The festival and @TheOrientalMKE are two of many reasons I love living in Milwaukee.
The most riveting documentary I saw at the @mkefilm festival was BAD PRESS about the fight for press freedom in Muscogee (Creek) Nation. If you're a journalist or care about press freedom, see this film if you can! Shoutout to directors @BeccaLandsberry and @heyjoepeeler.
MAHOGANY DRIVE, a comedy-horror short film about three Black friends (from @clubastronomy) who wake up to find a dead white woman on the floor of their Airbnb. /4
