I loved chatting with folks about building the future we deserve at @peopleslobbyusa's 2024 Public Meeting! Such amazing turnout and organizing energy on workers’ rights, the environment, health care, justice reform, and more 🔥

[Gregory Royal Pratt @royalpratt]

Deeply disappointed in @TheTRiiBE for refusing to respect its workers’ wishes to unionize and for this alleged act of retaliation against @corli_jay. I support the workers

Iykyk Corli puts in the work. What a loss for Triibe’s readers.

@KZiabari @amlibraries Thank you for sharing! ❤️

[Kourosh Ziabari @KZiabari]

An important story by @reemasabrina in @amlibraries on the unregulated use of AI causing disruption to the work of librarians, leading to copyright violations and encouraging plagiarism. And I wish I had known about the American Libraries Magazine earlier!

On Friday night, my former @raceandequity1 colleagues and I won two awards for our reporting on Black seniors in Chicago being disproportionately denied HELOCs and refinancing. I'm so honored & I look forward to doing more of this work in the future. https://t.co/kLV9c46sWt

[Maia McDonald 💫✌🏽 @maiamcdonld]

Well, I've got some news! Last night, @raceandequity1 won two awards for our story looking into the struggles many Black seniors face to receive home improvement loans. It’s the first story I've worked on to be nominated and win at the Lisagors, and I couldn't be more grateful.

@questionableway can't swim has racism history and regional/class implications (like if you don't live near a body of water or there are no open pools in your area, when would you learn?) whereas an adult can probs learn how to ride a bike in like a day and maybe even by themselves

[Reema Saleh ✨ @reemasabrina]

My TikTok feed is full of tongue-in-cheek recession indicators, like Lady Gaga's new return to form album and people postponing getting their roots done. But are we actually in a recession? Spoke to economists and business owners for @Suntimes about it. https://t.co/NaFiQA6MVU

Last year was my first stint in full-time freelancing. I'm grateful that it was financially viable and ultimately made projects like this. Thanks to the @headlineclub, and congrats to all the finalists this year! Also, it was a good™️ episode, listen 🎧:

[Reema Saleh ✨ @reemasabrina]

I made a podcast episode that's now a finalist for a @headlineclub Lisagor Award! For @ChangeAgentspod, this story explores how Chicagoans are using the city's two-flats to build wealth and preserve affordable housing on the South and West Sides.
