Former Dow Jones, CNNMoney, Reuters journo. Assoc teaching prof at Penn State, co-founder/chief education officer @prisonjourn & mom of 3 kids who run my life.
I’m so proud of the work @prisonjourn has done since we launched in 2020. The stories our writers have published, the growth they’ve shown as students of our curriculum, the upcoming handbook - all of this couldn’t have happened without your support. Please help us meet our goal.
Today, we kick off our year-end fundraising campaign. Our goal this year is to secure 150 new members to continue #unlockingstories by incarcerated writers. Become a member and help us continue to unlock stories.

Here with my friend and colleague @JoshuaPVaughn outside Moshannon Detention Center where members of congress were admitted into the facility for the first time for an unannounced oversight visit. Our series for @PennLive & @PSUBellisario was on their reading list for the visit.

This was a hard one for all of us watching this 18-year-old kid in ICE detention and his mother’s pain. I went and hugged my kids after returning from our reporting trip to WV. The fourth story in our @PennLive@PSUBellisario series on Moshannon: https://t.co/CIawZySFR0
The third story in our @PSUBellisario and @PennLive series tackles how this small coal mining town wound up housing the biggest ICE center in the Northeast. So proud of our students. Check it out! https://t.co/XBjvQQe9eY
The second article in our 8-part series for @PennLive went live today. Our @PSUBellisario students profiled a beautiful young couple whose dreams and trust in the U.S. shattered after the husband was detained by ICE for 3 months. Please meet Juan & Nicole. https://t.co/UYpDoXZtQj

Despite offering some of South America’s best cuisine, richest cultural attractions and most striking natural landscapes — from the roaring cascades of Iguazu Falls to the windswept plains of the Pampas — Argentina’s famously volatile economy is hamstringing the tourism industry. Vasco Chen reports.
University professors are protesting and learning to adapt to their new world of salary cuts imposed by President Javier Milei in his efforts to tame the country's high inflation. I spoke with professors in Argentina to see how hey have been surviving. Esteban Marenco reports.
Green space in Buenos Aires is unevenly distributed, increasing risk of poor physical and mental health for residents in lower and middle income neighborhoods. In Villa Santa Rita, which had been the city's only neighborhood with no public parks, the community mobilized for their first plaza. Mercedes Hamilton reports.
Beyond Buenos Aires lies the heart of Argentina’s countryside, the Pampas, where, for generations, the iconic gauchos have lived and worked the plains, shaping its cattle, land, and enduring traditions. Reporter, Bronwyn Liber looks into how today's Gauchos keep those same traditions alive.
A longtime member of the Argentine labor union called "Las Mandarinas," Norma Morales advocates for recognition of women's and workers rights under the "chainsaw" approach of Milei's administration. Vida Lashgari reports.
This Prison Is One of The Most Progressive in the US https://t.co/fyGCsbTQp9 "This isn’t just about prison reform. It’s about redefining justice. Retribution has its limits. You can’t punish a man into wholeness. But you can love him there."
The Supreme Court has granted the Trump administration’s emergency appeal to temporarily block a court order to fully fund SNAP food aid payments during the government shutdown. https://t.co/nDitqXqfyF
In his speech, Zohran Mamdani addressed Trump head on. Trump appeared to acknowledge Mamdani’s call-out, posting ”…AND SO IT BEGINS!” on his Truth Social site.
Zohran Mamdani was elected mayor of New York City on Tuesday, capping a stunning ascent for the 34-year-old state lawmaker, who was set to become the city’s most liberal mayor in generations.
This is the stupidest story ever. Anyone with an ounce of cultural awareness knows that people from South Asian cultures call their mother or father’s cousin by aunt or uncle as a term of respect. We don’t call them distant cousins. Do better.
The “aunt” who Zohran Mamdani said was too afraid to wear her hijab on the subways after 9/11 is actually a deceased distant cousin, he clarified Monday.
