HELP: Really struggling to find #SomeGoodNews for this week’s @NPPA newsletter.

What’s the best thing you saw this week? Something online (photo, video, gif, podcast?) that made you smile?? Doesn’t have to be photo related...

[NPPA @NPPA]

Hey photographers, @nppalawyer and @aliciaphoto do a lot for you, so if you’ve ever wanted to give back there’s one quick and easy thing you can do for them. The Senate may be voting on the #CASEAct soon. Let your senators know why they should support it. https://t.co/JMYrUZvGzS

I hope you'll tune into the @NPPA's Facebook Live tonight. We're holding a Coronavirus Town Hall forum at 8pm ET to talk with independent visual journalists about what they're facing covering this crisis. We've also got a CPA, an R.N, and a whole host of smart people lined up…

The @NPPA is hosting another Coronavirus Town Hall next Tuesday 4/7 at 8pm ET. This one will be geared toward freelancers. So, as the moderator... I’m here to find out what questions you'd like me to ask.

DM me, email me, or drop me a reply here.

This is a LOVELY, ambitious, and fun undertaking that really captures the pulse of a city: 65 Block Parties, 5 Boroughs, 20 Photographers. Nice work @nytimes. https://t.co/c06CtEiMQG

If you live in NYC or are just visiting for PhotoVille go hang with some rad people tonight at this @NPPA meet-up. And if you want to learn more about the NPPA while there, ask @juliarphoto to fill you in on all the great work we’re doing and reasons to join.
