Three members of our @NewsHour digital team have been laid off. They were the last remaining staffers of our Communities Initiative and were based in MI, OK and MO. The were valued colleagues and their loss will be keenly felt. Please see our statement below.

@NewsHour @Adam_WK Richard Glossip's case hinged on whether his due process rights were violated when the state suppressed information about the witness who committed the murder. Unusually, one of the people supporting Glossip's case was Oklahoma's own attorney general.

@NewsHour @fkwang Flint is the Michigan city notorious for a water supply contaminated by lead. But across the state, another Black-majority town faced poisoned water and a legacy of segregation and neglect.

@NewsHour .@fkwang was our reporter based in Ann Arbor, about a 45 minute drive west of Detroit. She covered all things Michigan but in particular focused on voting rights and immigrant communities--in particular the state's sizable Arab American population.

@NewsHour @fkwang "Gardening and community gardens can be ways for immigrant and refugee communities to supplement their pantries by growing their own food, especially culturally appropriate food that is not readily found in grocery stores or farmers’ markets."

@NewsHour @thegabhour "The water was contaminated with nuclear waste and that other local residents believed their health challenges were connected to this contamination, a byproduct of World War II-era nuclear weapon production in St. Louis."

@NewsHour @thegabhour Tens of thousands of people go missing each year — what advocates call a “silent epidemic” in the United States. The issue affects Black and Indigenous women disproportionate rates.

[We Make LAist (formerly KPCC) @LAistUnion]

We’re committed to building long-term relationships with the communities we serve. We need your help.

We’re losing @LAist colleagues and potential hires. One reason: our company doesn't pay enough to live in L.A.

Costs are rising. Our wages should, too. 🧵 #WeMakeKPCCLAist #1u
