I wrote about myself and how $88,000 in mainly private student loans has made reporting unaffordable.
This piece closes a chapter for me and journalism for a while. And though it's not the way I expected to end my run, I'm grateful for the journey.

Each day is devastating for Ukrainians, we lose more and more of our best, our family. These are 3 stories about 8 incredible people when thousands are gone. This project took a couple of weeks, nothing I've ever worked was more important and devastating.

We just published this story about discrimination and retaliation inside the Dallas offices of the EEOC — the federal agency that's supposed to police workplace discrimination and retaliation. Quick thread on what @npenzenstadler, @JavonteA and I learned https://t.co/jyFfBQhxR4
At least 93 bills proposed in 35 states since George Floyd's death would ban such things as “taunting police” and “camping” on state property, effectively criminalizing peaceful, legitimate First Amendment-protected protest, writes @latams for @USATODAY https://t.co/YyhsMFWfrz
"Their full and tragic stories have unfolded very slowly for later Texans in part because English-speaking Anglo-Americans mythologized the invasion of the West."
"We don’t want people to come in here and just take everything that our family built. This is sacred land to us... we are here to stay and we hope that you can enjoy our culture and embrace it, just like we’ve had to accept you coming in.”
Georgia has the most Black women in its legislature, at 39. But in many states representation still lags.

"I am striding toward change, demanding the exhales of a changed America, one where Black women and all people can dream and live a desired reality."

what @shaylah_brown wrote, wow
"I will never be the same person that I was before I heard about Breonna Taylor’s death. I was baptized into this unwanted reality"

Racial slurs, made-up insults. Wishing harm on reporters. If a story touches on race or other disparities @Saleen_Martin, @La__Ley and @Denisewrites know the abuse is sure to come.
Thank you to all three of them for letting me tell their stories.

"We... misunderstand this idea if we just put more facts into a hierarchical system, we'll be okay. The other information ecosystem is being so successful. It's growing and pulling people in from our information ecosystem."
